Nigerian Lawyer Okutepa Faults High Court Judge Over Controversial Ruling On NDC Party
A Senior Advocate of Nigeria (SAN), Jibrin Okutepa, has faulted the decision of the Federal High Court sitting in Lokoja to set aside its earlier judgment directing the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to register the Nigerian Democratic Congress (NDC) as a political party, describing the ruling as legally questionable. In a statement issued on Monday, June 29, 2026, Okutepa said he deliberately withheld comments on the ruling delivered by Justice Dashen until he had studied the judgment.
