amended) and the Electoral Act 2010 (as amended), the Independent
National Electoral Commission has today, Thursday, December 6, 2012,
de-registered the following political parties:”
Please note that Chief Olu Falae has long left DPA and now the Chairman of SDMP that is still a bonafide active Party in the Nigerian Federation. So it is erroneous to peddle the news that Chief Olu Falae Party was de registered. Chief Olu Falae is no more a member of DPA when her took up National Chairmanship of SDMP. And SDMP is grateful to Professor Atahirtu Jega and all INEC officials as well as the president of the Nigerian Federation for thier impartial judgement based on parties internal democracy through annual congress, active participation and presentation of candidates for elective positions and other stronger far sighted criteria of integrity, commitment and seriousness of political parties... rather than use the fickle but elusive winning seats at Parliament as yardstick of measure of greatness of political parities...This new paradigm policy shift of h.e. Professor Atahiru Jega in assessment of political parties based on his own internal Research and information of activities of political parties is highly commendable as ingenious proactive interactive policy thrust that will lead Nigeria to the entrenchment of genuine democracy in Sub Saharan Africa.
LONG LIVE FEDERAL REPUBLIC OF NIGERIA
