Deregistration judgment: Appeal Court verdict is victory for democracy — Accord
By Luminous Jannamike Accord Party on Wednesday hailed the Court of Appeal’s decision nullifying the Federal High Court judgment ordering the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, to deregister the party and four others, describing the appellate court’s verdict as “victory for democracy, rule of law and due process.
Expressing the party’s appreciation, he said: “Accord welcomes this landmark judgment of the Court of Appeal and appreciates Nigerians who set aside political differences and strongly condemned the judicial recklessness of the Federal High Court presided over by Justice Peter Lifu.” Tracing the legal battle, Mgbudem noted that Accord challenged the Federal High Court judgment at the Court of Appeal, which granted a stay of proceedings on May 22, 2026, before issuing a stay of execution on June 16, pending the determination of the appeal.
