Peter Obi Presidential Ambition Stuffers Setback as Court Nullifies NDC Registration Ruling
Published on
According to report by Nigerian Tribune on Friday, June 26, 2026, Peter Obi’s reported presidential aspirations have encountered a legal hurdle after a Federal High Court in Lokoja nullified its earlier ruling directing the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to register the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC).
In a judgment delivered on Friday, Justice Isah Dashen overturned the court’s December 10, 2025 decision, stating that it could not remain valid because all parties with an interest in the matter were not given the opportunity to participate before the judgment was delivered.
The court upheld an application filed by the Peace Movement Party (PMP), which sought to be joined in the case as an interested party.
