Journalist and political commentator Rufai Oseni has alleged that the legal process surrounding the deregistration of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) was deliberately orchestrated and filed shortly after former presidential candidate Peter Obi reportedly joined or aligned with the party.
Oseni made the claim during a political discussion, suggesting that the timing of the case raised questions about possible political motivations behind the move. He argued that the sequence of events appeared suspicious and deserved closer scrutiny by relevant authorities.
The allegation has sparked renewed debate within Nigeria’s political space, with observers calling for transparency in party regulation and judicial processes involving political organizations.
The NDC had earlier been affected by deregistration actions linked to electoral compliance issues, a development that has continued to generate controversy among stakeholders.
As reactions trail Oseni’s remarks, political analysts say the matter further highlights ongoing concerns about party administration, regulatory fairness, and the independence of electoral institutions.
Neither the Independent National Electoral Commission nor other relevant authorities have issued an official response to the latest allegation at the time of filing this report.
