  News   The Abia State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has applauded the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) for declining participation in what it described as the “ill-fated and legally unsustainable” Ibadan National Convention .

By law, the party noted, the absence of INEC automatically invalidates any convention, rendering proceedings “procedurally defective and legally void.” Appolos expressed deep concern ...
