The Federal High Court sitting in Abuja has ordered the Independent National Electoral Commission to approve and use the modified digital logo of the Nigeria Democratic Congress, NDC, for elections conducted by the commission.
The court also restrained INEC from stopping or interfering with the party’s use of its digitally designed “two-finger” victory sign as its official logo.
The judgment, delivered by Justice J.O. Abdulmalik, followed a suit filed by the NDC after it alleged that INEC removed the modified logo from its database and replaced it with the old logo.
The court directed INEC to approve the modified logo, including its symbol and colours, for the party’s official use.
Reacting to the judgment, the NDC National Publicity Secretary, Osa Director, directed the party’s candidates and members to adopt the approved logo on campaign materials and other party items.
The development comes as political parties intensify preparations for the 2027 general elections.
