The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has announced the reinstatement of Barr. Sly Ezeokenwa as the Chairman of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) in accordance with a recent Supreme Court ruling.
Sam Olumekun, the INEC National Commissioner and Chairman of the Information and Voter Education Committee, confirmed that the commission met on Tuesday, December 17, 2024, to discuss the issue.
He explained that the commission had received the Supreme Court’s judgment (Appeal No. SC/CV/824/2024 APGA & ANOR vs OYE & ORS), which was delivered on November 27, 2024, and recognized Ezeokenwa as the legitimate chairman of APGA.
In line with the court’s decision, INEC has restored Ezeokenwa’s name as the party chairman and updated its website to reflect the change.
