Court Delays APC’s Suit Against INEC
On September 5, the Federal High Court in Abuja will review a lawsuit from the All Progressives Congress (APC) against the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) concerning the Rivers State local government elections. Justice Peter Lifu has delayed the hearing to allow the APC to serve necessary documents to the Inspector General of Police and other defendants.
The APC argues that INEC must follow legal standards for managing and updating the voter register, including stopping registration at least 90 days before the election. The party also seeks to invalidate parts of the RSIEC Law due to conflicts with the Electoral Act, 2022. Previously, Justice Lifu issued an order preventing INEC from releasing voter registers and restricting the police and DSS from participating in the election process until the case is resolved.
It was reported that bandits were seen in Kwara State and abducted six residents from Rukpete Village.
The incident was reported to have occurred on June 8 at about 11 p.m.
Sources revealed that seven people were initially taken, but an elderly man was later released, leaving six victims in captivity.
The rising cases of insecurity in the country remain quite alarming.
The state of the country is affecting many people, as they believe nowhere is safe, including schools where they keep their children.
It has been reported that some parents have started withdrawing their children from schools in Abuja.
It can be noted that rumours of bandits being sighted near a school triggered panic, causing parents to hurriedly remove their children for safety.
While the reports of bandits have not been confirmed, the school has also issued safety measures to ensure the protection of students within the premises.
It has been rumored that bandits have made their way to Lagos, and allegedly they were spotted in Ibeju-Lekki, where some residents became suspicious of them and reported the matter.
A clip of the group of men went viral online, and many people became concerned. Whether true or not, fear has been sparked among Lagosians as they worry that bandits may already be in the state. Even if the reports remain unconfirmed, many believe it is still a possibility worth paying attention to.
