The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has announced that the All Democratic Alliance (ADA), a proposed political party associated with Mallam Nasir El-Rufai, cannot be registered at the moment due to failure to meet the necessary requirements.
According to Mr. Sam Olumekun, INEC's National Commissioner and Chairman, Information and Voter Education Committee, the party's proponents have not fulfilled the criteria for registration. Olumekun stated that INEC has received several letters of intent from various groups, but none have met the requirements to proceed with formal registration.
"The truth is that we have so many letters of intent presently, and none of them is an application yet," Olumekun said. "They must first meet the criteria before submitting a letter of intent."
It was gathered that the ADA proponents made an error in their letter to INEC, omitting the word "electoral" in the address. This oversight may have contributed to the party's failure to meet the registration requirements.
Notably, there is no mention of Atiku Abubakar being associated with the ADA party in the original article. INEC's stance emphasizes the importance of adhering to the registration process and meeting the necessary criteria for political parties in Nigeria.
As the political landscape continues to evolve, aspiring politicians and parties must navigate the complex registration process. The ADA's setback serves as a reminder of the importance of attention to detail and compliance with regulatory requirements.
