The Independent National Electoral
Commission says the All Progressives Congress will not be allowed to
participate in any elections except the Presidential poll in Rivers and
Zamfara States.
The INEC Chairman, Prof. Mahmoud Yakubu, said this at a press conference in Abuja on Wednesday.
Yakubu’s
position comes despite a letter written to INEC by the Attorney-General
of the Federation, Abubakar Malami (SAN), asking the commission to
recognise the APC in Zamfara.
The APC in Zamfara and Rivers
states had threatened that they would not allow any elections to take
place in their states if they were not allowed to participate in the
governorship, National Assembly and state assembly elections.
