APC wants INEC to stop inspection of election materials used in Kogi

The All Progressives Congress (APC) has urged the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to halt the Thursday-scheduled inspection of the 11 November 2023 Kogi Governorship Election materials by the Social Democratic Party (SDP).
The party also called for the removal and discipline of the Kogi INEC Resident Electoral Commissioner (REC), Gabriel Longpet, for having been allegedly compromised by the SDP and its candidate.

The Director of Media and Publicity, APC Campaign Council, made the calls in a statement issued in Lokoja on Wednesday.

The party frowned at the readiness of INEC to allow the legal team of SDP to inspect the election materials in disregard to an alleged preliminary objection earlier raised by its (INEC’s) counsel before the Governorship Election Petition Tribunal sitting in Abuja.
