The Federal High Court in Abuja has ruled against the deadline set by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) for political parties to conduct primaries and nominate candidates for the 2027 general elections. In a judgment delivered by Justice Mohammed Umar, the court found the timeline issued by INEC to be invalid, providing significant relief to political parties as they prepare for the upcoming elections. The court's decision also included the annulment of INEC's specified date of May 10 for these processes, thereby allowing parties greater flexibility in their electoral preparations.
