The Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC) says it has uploaded its presidential candidate, Peter Obi’s, name to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) nomination portal. According to NDC National Leader Senator Seriake Dickson, the action follows the party’s filing of an appeal and an application seeking a stay of execution against a court judgment that ordered the party’s deregistration. Both reports attribute the development to Dickson’s public statement and describe the upload as occurring after the NDC moved to challenge the court decision. The sources present the upload as part of the party’s efforts to manage the impact of the court ruling while the appeal process is ongoing. They do not provide additional details on the content of the court judgment, INEC’s response, or whether INEC accepts or processes the nomination update. The updates focus on the sequence of events: court-ordered deregistration, the NDC’s legal filings for a stay of execution, and the subsequent uploading of Peter Obi’s name on INEC’s portal.
