A legal analysis by Olukayode Ajulo discusses the Supreme Court's judgment on the Electoral Act 2026, delivered on 24 September 2026. The Supreme Court allowed INEC's appeal concerning Sections 77(5), 77(6), 77(7), and 84(2) of the Act, setting aside the Court of Appeal's judgment and restoring the Federal High Court's decision. The article clarifies that the Supreme Court did not enact the provisions but determined they are not unconstitutional on the grounds challenged. The provisions remain part of the electoral law and must be followed.
