state high court in Yola has barred the Independent National Electoral
Commission (INEC) from conducting the supplementary governorship
election for which it scheduled March 23 in Adamawa State.

an interim injunction barring INEC from conducting the supplementary
polls in the 44 polling units where voting either did not hold during
the March 9 governorship election or was cancelled
The high court
judgement was sequel to a suit filed by the governorship candidate of
the Movement for the Restoration and Defence of Democracy (MRRD), Rev
Eric Theman, who questioned non-inclusion of his party logo for the
governorship election by INEC.
