Nigeria’s electoral commission, INEC, has insisted on taking a wider look at the Supreme Court’s ruling that annulled the November 16 Bayelsa governorship election results, before it would issue a certificate of return to the candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, Diri Duoye.
“The commission will look at the exact wordings of the enrolled Order and the context of the Order and make a determination of what the Supreme Court wants the commission to do. “The Supreme Court gave the commission the sole responsibility of determining the party and candidate that scored the majority of lawful votes and secured the requisite spread and the Commission will not share this responsibility with any individual or groups.
The apex court, in the judgment delivered by Ejembi Eko, consequently ordered INEC to withdraw the certificate of return issued to Messrs Lyon and Degi-Eremienyo.
