Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi, has accused the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) of failing to maintain neutrality in his petition at the Presidential Election Petition Tribunal Court in Abuja.
Obi’s legal team has also contended that INEC’s argument that 25% percent votes from the Federal Capital Territory is not a requirement in the 2023 presidential election is “not true” and that the 1999 constitution makes it mandatory.
Additionally, Obi cited a Federal High Court judgment which held that the Bimodal Voter Accreditation System is “core” to the election.
