APC LG Aspirant Drags DSIEC To Court
By Michael Oladapo
A chairmanship aspirant of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Izu Iloba-Agafiena, has dragged the Delta State Independent Electoral Commission (DSIEC) before the High Court in Asaba.
This follows the refusal of DSIEC to present the plantiff as the chairmanship candidate of the All Progressive Congress (APC) in Aniocha South Local Government Area of the state.

It would be recalled that APC in Aniocha-South had unanimously endorsed and presented IIoba-Agafiena as the flag-bearer of the party in the March 6, 2021, council election.
Iloba-Agafiena prayed the court to grant an order restraining the commission from screening or recognising a candidate presented by the APC in the local government elections.
The complainant also requested for a restraining order against one Felix Ilomechine, who was allegedly used as substitute for Iloba-Agafiena by the APC, from parading himself as candidate of the party, pending the determination of the pre-election suit.
