The Independent National Electoral Commission says it has yet to make any decision regarding the national chairman and national secretary crisis rocking the Labour Party.
The commission made the clarification in a statement issued by the Chief Press Secretary to INEC Chairman, Rotimi Oyekanmi, on Thursday.
Oyekanmi also said that it had yet to take any decision on the National Secretary of the Peoples Democratic Party.
He said: “Our attention has been drawn to some media reports claiming that the commission has recognised certain persons as the national chairman and national secretary of LP.
“The reports also inferred that the commission has restored a particular individual as the national secretary of PDP, referring to the listings on the commission’s official website.
“However, the reports are false and misleading. The commission has not made any decision in respect of either the LP or PDP.”

Oyekanmi said that the names of the national officers of LP had previously been uploaded to INEC website, following a court order, not related in any way to the latest judgement of the Supreme Court.
He said: “In the same manner, the name of the national secretary of PDP on the same website was neither deleted nor reinstated.
“As a law abiding institution, the commission is carefully studying the judgment of the Supreme Court on the LP and will communicate its decision to the public in due course.”
