COURT NULLIFIES MOVE BY MELAYE TO STOP RECALL

Penpushing recalled that, Melaye had approached the appellate court in a bid to stop the process after an Abuja Federal High Court in September 2017 gave the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) the go-ahead to begin Melaye’s recall process.

However, Justice Tunde Awotoye and two other judges in the latest judgement ordered Independent Electoral Commission (INEC) to continue with the planned verification of 188,588 who reportedly signed petition for the recall.

Meanwhile, the court which initially ordered a suspension of the recall process in September 2017 directed that the process should continue, after deciding that the application lacked merit.
