A Federal High Court in Abuja has stopped the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) from excluding the All Progressives Congress (APC) polling and collating agents from participating in the governorship election in Edo State on Saturday.

The court, presided over by Justice Emeka Nwite, also ordered INEC to temporarily accept and give effect to the list of the polling and collation agents for the poll.

The case, with Suit Number FHC/AB/CS/1326/2024, has the APC challenging the non-recognition exclusion of its agents from participating in the poll.

After hearing the application of APC counsel Abdulghani Arobo, leading Ayodele Toe and Ayodeji Ibekunle, the judge ordered the electoral commission not to exclude the party’s polling and collation agents pending the hearing and determination of the motion on notice.
