APC candidates missing from INEC's list for Rivers' National Assembly elections
INEC's decision to exclude the party from the list is in accordance with a court order.

In the list signed by INEC Secretary, Rose Orianran-Anthony, and released on Thursday, January 17, 2019, the party's candidates were excluded.
The omission is in accordance with a recent federal high court judgement that nullified the party's contentious factional primary elections that produced different candidates for the same positions.
The court ruled that the elections were not conducted in accordance with the law and restrained INEC from recognising any APC candidates for the 2019 general elections in the state.
