The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has been directed by a Federal High Court in Abuja to recognise and publish the name of Godswill Akpabio as the All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate for the Akwa Ibom North/West senatorial district in 2023.
In a ruling on Thursday, Justice Emeka Nwite ruled that INEC had broken the law by refusing to recognize and publish Akpabio’s name, despite the fact that the APC had submitted it as their candidate.
