The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has dismissed a viral social media poster claiming that it had reaffirmed the Senator David Mark-led leadership of the African Democratic Congress (ADC).

The commission described the publication as fake, insisting that it did not originate from INEC.

In a statement issued on Friday, the electoral body said the poster and its accompanying message falsely suggested that it had officially reaffirmed Mark’s leadership of the opposition party.

INEC urged the public to disregard the misleading publication, stressing that the commission was not responsible for its circulation.

“The said poster did not originate from the Commission,” the statement said.

INEC also condemned the unauthorised use of its logo and the image of its National Commissioner, Mohammed Haruna, in the publication.

“For the avoidance of doubt, INEC has issued no such reaffirmation,” it stated.

The commission urged members of the public to disregard the publication and obtain information about its activities and decisions only from its official and verified communication channels.

The clarification comes amid the leadership crisis rocking the ADC following a Federal High Court judgment that nullified the David Mark-led leadership of the party.

The ruling has also raised questions about the validity of decisions taken by the affected party leadership, including its presidential primary process.
