A Federal High Court has decided against the INEC because MC Oluomo, the leader of the NURTW’s Lagos Chapter, was involved in the distribution of election materials.

The union leader had requested the electoral umpire hire a business to deal with in order to disseminate materials to him in Lagos before the 2023 presidential elections.
