The dirty cans of worms of Professor Mahmood Yakubu’s INEC over the illegal, unconstitutional  conspiracy with the cabals to deregister 74 political parties in a hideous, nocturnal, diabolical plan of turning Nigeria into a one-party APC state to rule forever under the hegemony of the Oligarchy has been trounced by the able leadership of the ANRP  whose National Chairman HE  Chief Tope Fasua a respectable, reputable, Professional Chartered Accountant has floored Professor Mahmood Yakubu and INEC shenanigans’ by slamming an N2Billion Naira suit in the Federal High Court, Abuja over the case of illegal, unconstitutional conspiracy to deregister Abundant Nigeria Renewal Party{ ANRP]- A party registered just a few months to 2019 elections.

The entire world has condemned and discredited the 2019 general election as the worst election in Nigerian History and most of the International and local observers have indicted INEC and Professor Mahmood Yakubu of complicity with the Ruling failed government of APC to rig the APC to power forever despite it is not the will or wish of the peoples as express in the elections. 

The people’s votes never counted as the 2019 election was characterized by violence, vote-buying and selling, election result falsifications, underage voting, inconclusive elections, election postponements, violence, arson, voter’s intimidation, shame, ruins and grieves. Most of the observers called for a total cancellation of the result of the 2019 elections as a sham and not tenable to intelligence to be used as a yardstick to adjudge who won or lost in the Election. Professor Mahmood Yakubu and INEC failed the entire Nation woefully,

Furthermore most peoples of the world, cognizance that no Nation in the entire universe has deregistered political parties for the past 100 years  and that Nigeria’s conspiracy to deregister other Political Parties {shadow governments in the waiting} is a kangaroo, illegal and unconstitutional conspiracy by the ruling APC cabals to dominate and rule the polity forever, but nevertheless expects that such new and fresh parties as ANRP be given some time to mature before any axe can be applied but due to the mediocrity and vulnerability of INEC, they have landed themselves in hot soup of an N2 Billion naira suit. They may have to sell all their assets to pay ANRP for damages.

National Peoples News gathered that other 74 illegally Deregistered political parties are planning to join the ANRP in the suit and raise the benchmark of the suit compensation to N150 Billion Naira.

The suit was filed at the Federal High Court Abuja on the following grounds:

1. That section 225A of the constitution which gave INEC power to deregister, not providing a procedure for a party sought to be registered to make representation to INEC, before the decision is made, is invalid being in conflict with S.36 (1) and (2) of the constitution which provides for a fair hearing in the determination of rights and obligations of any person as an inalienable right.
2. The powers granted under section 225A has not arisen given that the section envisages that all events of deregistration must have occurred before the power is exercised. In this case, INEC itself admitted.
3. There are already extant orders of and proceedings of the court preventing INEC from exercising the power which it went ahead to do. For instance, the order of perpetual injunction confirmed by the Court of Appeal in Jezie Ekejiuba V Inec & Anor, as well as Advance Congress of Democrats & 32 Ors v AG Fed & INEC.
4. The powers granted under S225A ought not to operate retroactively in imposing the penalty of deregistration on parties existing before its enactment when deregistration was not a term of registration at the time and winning elections are not part of the exhaustive constitutional provisions on the objectives of a political party.

The matter is yet to be assigned to a particular court as well a date for the legal fireworks to commence.
