The Kwankwassiya movement has urged the National Judicial Council to intervene in the dispute over conflicting court rulings within the African Democratic Congress. The group also called for the resignation of Independent National Electoral Commission chairman Joash Amupitan, accusing him of refusing to recognize the party's national leadership. The demands follow a series of legal battles over control of the ADC, with conflicting judgments deepening the crisis. Amupitan's decision not to recognize the faction led by the Kwankwassiya movement has drawn sharp criticism, escalating tensions within the party. The movement's spokesperson stated that the NJC must act to resolve the legal contradictions that have left the party in disarray.
The demand for Amupitan's resignation exposes how electoral institutions become pawns in factional wars. His refusal to recognize the Kwankwassiya faction suggests INEC's neutrality is compromised when personal loyalties override legal clarity. This pattern of intervention only entrenches instability, leaving voters to navigate a party in perpetual flux. Without decisive NJC action, the ADC's crisis will keep dragging on, further eroding public trust in electoral bodies.
