The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has
confirmed that a group, African Peoples Congress (APC), has approached it for
registration as a political party.
The chief press secretary to the INEC chairman, My Kayode
Idowu, who disclosed this to LEADERSHIP last night during a telephone
interview, said that the group had filed an application for registration as a
political party only last week.
He, however, added that the group must fulfil certain
criteria before it can be registered.
When asked if the action of the group was meant to stall the
registration of the opposition All Progressives Congress (APC),Idowu replied:
“We don’t have any application from the All Progressives Congress with us, as
the body is yet to approach us for registration.”
