Court of Appeal postpones hearing in ADC, other parties’ deregistration appeal

The Court of Appeal has delayed the hearing for the appeal against the deregistration of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) and four other parties, following a Federal High Court ruling that mandated the INEC to deregister them. This postponement could delay the resolution of the legal battle over the parties' status, which has significant implications for Nigeria's political landscape and electoral integrity. The deregistration itself has stirred controversy, raising questions about the INEC's authority and the potential impact on upcoming elections.
