 Legal battle in the All Progressive Grand Alliance(APGA) has taken another dimension with a motion seeking to commit the Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission(INEC), Prof. Mahmoud Yakubu, to prison.
 He is accused of publishing illegal governorship candidates for APGA in Kogi, Imo and Bayelsa states.
 The committal charge is sequel to a suit marked: FCT/HC/CV/4068/2023), filed in April 2023, by Otunba Camaru Lateef Ogidan (national vice chairman, South West) and Mustapha Rabiu (national welfare officer), who emerged at the Owerri Convention of May 31, 2019, under the leadership of Chief Edozie Njoku, party national chairman.
The court had on June 6 granted the plea of the plaintiffs and pursuant to Section 287 (1) of the 1999 Constitution which states that any Court of record can enforce the judgment of the Supreme Court and consequently enforce the Supreme Court Judgment of March 24, 2023, stating clearly that Chief Victor Oye has no right whatsoever to parade himself as the National Chairman of APGA.
 Meanwhile, Justice Mohammed Madugu sitting in Bwari division of the court has fixed tomorrow for definite hearing of the motion.
 However, the committal charges on INEC chairman was due to his refusal to recognise Chief Edozie Njoku as rightful national chairman of APGA and going ahead to publish illegal names of governorship candidates for APGA for the coming elections in Imo, Kogi and Bayelsa states which did not emanate from Chief Njoku.
