PDP To INEC: Declare All APC Legislative Seats Vacant
The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has urged the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to declare vacant all legislative seats occupied by members of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Eko Hot Blog reports.
PDP’s National Publicity Secretary, Kola Ologbondiyan, made the call in a statement issued in reaction to the dissolution of all APC party structures.
The statement partly read:
“Now that the APC has become defunct, the PDP invites the Independent National Electoral Commission to officially deregister the APC and recall its certificate of registration, given that it no longer has operational structures as required by law.

“In the same vein, INEC should immediately declare the seat of all lawmakers elected on the platform of APC at the federal and state levels as vacant and commence the process of bye-election to fill the seats, as required by law.
“Furthermore, government agencies, civil society organizations, as well as the international community, should immediately gazette the APC as a defunct political organization in our country.
“Nevertheless, the PDP invites all leaders of the fizzled APC to get ready to answer Nigerians for their misdeeds, and not to think they can get away with their atrocities by forming or joining another political party.”
