Court dismisses suit challenging PRP, Donald Duke, INEC

The Federal High Court sitting in Abuja has dismissed a suit filed by Engr. Yakubu Muhammad Kingsley (YMK) against the Peoples Redemption Party (PRP), its presidential candidate, Donald Duke, and the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC). This was disclosed in a statement signed by Abdulhakeem Ago Abdullahi, Assistant National Legal Adviser of the PRP. The court, in its judgment delivered on Wednesday, September 30, 2026, upheld the preliminary objection filed by the PRP and Duke, ruling that Kingsley commenced the suit outside the time prescribed by the Constitution. The court also considered the substantive issues raised by the plaintiff and resolved them in favour of the respondents. On Duke’s alleged membership of the PRP, the court held that membership of a political party was an internal party matter and therefore outside the court’s jurisdiction. The court also found that Kingsley failed to place before it the party guidelines which he alleged had been breached during the party’s screening exercise. On the allegation of over-voting in the PRP primary election in Bauchi, Gombe and Kwara states, the court held that the plaintiff failed to provide the party’s membership register, accreditation records and final primary election results to substantiate the claim. Consequently, the court dismissed the suit and resolved all the issues in favour of the PRP, Duke and INEC. Court dismisses suit challenging PRP, Donald Duke, INEC
