President Bola Ahmed Tinubu says he has no hand in the alleged move to de-register or stop the registration of new political parties in the country.
The President stated this on Thursday while addressing a joint session of the National Assembly to mark democracy day.
There were reports that the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) had withheld applications by associations seeking to be registered as political parties ahead of the 2027 general elections.

But President Tinubu said, “I have never attempted to alter any party’s registration with INEC.”
