The African People\u2019s congress which was first to apply and complete the registration process with INEC was later denied registration by INEC on a flimsy excuse of non availability of their Officers Address, a requirement theAfrican People\u2019s Congress duly submitted and was acknowledge by INEC.<\/p>\n<p>The Federal High Court Abuja is expected tomorrow to give ruling on pending application which will go a long way in shaping the battle over who owns APC including a pending Injunction to restrain the continued usage of the APC Acronym by the rival All Progressive Congress, APC pending the determination and completion of the main suit.<\/p>\n<p>As we return to the Court tomorrow, we urge all our members and supporters to remain strong and committed as the African People\u2019s Congress is confident that in the long run, the Judiciary will restore the registration of the African People\u2019s Congress APC and any other action taken by any group or INEC would have been an exercise in futility.<\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Federal High court sitting in Abuja and presided over by Justice Gabriel Kolawale will tomorrow resume hearing in the Suit filed by the African People\u2019s Congress, APC seeking to&hellip;<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":19578,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-20133","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.8 -
