Dino Melaye, a former Kogi West Senator and African Democratic Congress (ADC) chieftain, has slammed the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), claiming that it is now a department of the All Progressives Congress (APC).


Melaye accused the INEC of bias and misinterpreting a court judgement.


In a video shared on his X page, the ADC chieftain stated that the electoral body’s actions had destroyed public trust.


According to Melaye, those responsible should either be removed or made to step down.


“We expect that the president will either sack or these people will sack themselves because INEC has misinterpreted the order of the court, they have shown partiality.


“They have shown that they are a department of APC, and we have lost confidence in them,” he said.


This comes as chieftains of the ADC led by factional Interim National Chairman, David Mark, former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, Peter Obi, Rabiu Kwankwaso, and others held a protest at INEC headquarters over the delisting of the party.
