The Federal High Court in Abuja has ordered the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to approve and use the modified digital logo of the Nigeria Democratic Congress (NDC)
•The logo features a two-finger victory sign.
The court also restrained INEC from stopping or interfering with the party’s use of the logo as its official symbol in all elections.
The judgment by Justice J.O. Abdulmalik followed a suit filed by the NDC after INEC removed its modified logo from its platform and reverted to an old one with which the party was originally registered.
In a statement by its National Publicity Secretary, Osa Director, the NDC said its First National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting on March 25, 2026, approved the modified logo and forwarded it to INEC.
According to the Director, INEC uploaded the new logo but later removed it without communicating any reason to the NDC.
The opposition party said it gave INEC sufficient time to correct what it described as an administrative error, but resorted to the court after its efforts failed.
In the judgment, Justice Abdulmalik ordered INEC, its servants, agents and officers to “forthwith approve the modified logo design” of the NDC, including its symbol and colours.
The court described the logo as a digitally designed “two-finger victory sign with a blue background and the word ‘NDC’ written in red on top.” It directed that the new logo should henceforth be recognised by INEC for all purposes, including elections.
