The Coalition of United Political Parties, CUPP, has applauded the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, for the timely release of the Rivers State voters’ register in preparation for the conduct of the August 9th local government elections.
In a Press Release this Sunday signed the CUPP national Spokesperson, Comrade Mark Adebayo, the Coalition stated that
“We, as an opposition Coalition, wish to salute the dutifulness of the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, for the expeditious compliance with the Supreme Court judgement by the timely release of Rivers State Voters’ Register in preparation towards the local government election already fixed for August 9th, 2025.
“By doing this, inspite of distractions by political rabble rousers who are hellbent on suffocating democracy at grassroots levels in the state. The INEC has proven its institutional integrity by doing the needful in defence of democracy and the rule of law. This is highly commendable and we celebrate the decisiveness of the Commission in doing what is right, legal, and constitutional in obedience to a legitimate Court order. We wholeheartedly congratulate the leadership of the Commission for building people’s confidence in our democratic process by this action”.
“At the same time we call on the the Attorney-General to begin the process of prosecuting the pro-Wike group trying to scuttle the implementation of the Supreme Court’s Judgment on the forthcoming local government election by all criminal means”
