No Party Ties: Clarification Emerges on INEC Chairman’s Political Neutrality
INEC Chair Dispute: Officials Stress Independence From All Political Interests
ABUJA — Fresh clarifications have emerged over the composition of the legal team that represented the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the 2023 presidential election petition, as experts debunk renewed claims linking Professor Joash Ojo Amupitan to the case.
The clarification follows persistent social media allegations that Amupitan served as counsel to the APC during proceedings at the Supreme Court after the 2023 presidential election won by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
However, legal analysts and practitioners have pointed out that the name being referenced in official records is that of Taiwo Osipitan, SAN, a distinguished Senior Advocate of Nigeria who was indeed part of the APC’s legal representation.
According to sources familiar with the proceedings, the confusion appears to stem from a mix-up of names, which has since been amplified by online commentators.
“Taiwo Osipitan was on the legal team. Professor Joash Ojo Amupitan was not. The records are clear,” a senior legal practitioner in Abuja said.
A review of publicly available court documents and reports from the 2023 election petition confirms that Amupitan did not file processes, appear in court, or act in any legal capacity for the APC.
The issue, observers say, resurfaced during scrutiny of Amupitan’s nomination for a top electoral role, when some groups raised concerns about alleged political links. Those claims, however, were not substantiated with verifiable evidence and were dismissed during the screening process.
Analysts argue that the continued recycling of the allegation reflects a broader pattern of misinformation in the political space, where previously debunked claims are reintroduced to shape public perception.
They further note that conflating individuals with similar professional backgrounds, particularly within Nigeria’s legal community, can lead to misleading conclusions if not properly verified.
“As it stands, there is no credible record linking Amupitan to the APC legal team,” another legal source said. “What exists is a clear case of mistaken identity.”
Observers have urged greater caution in public discourse, emphasizing that issues relating to electoral integrity and institutional leadership must be grounded in facts rather than speculation.

Grace Nation: “The Prince of Persia Operates Everywhere—Even in the Church” — Dr Chris Okafor
Grace Nation: “The Prince of Persia Operates Everywhere—Even in the Church” — Dr Chris Okafor
…Covenant determines outcomes
…Breaking negative patterns requires sacrifice and spiritual discipline
Understanding the root and dynamics of life’s challenges is essential to overcoming them. Many struggles—particularly recurring family patterns and generational curses—persist because they are not properly identified or addressed.
Ignorance, in many cases, prolongs such cycles of limitation.
These insights formed the core of the teaching by the Generational Prophet and Senior Pastor of Grace Nation Global, Dr Chris Okafor, during a recent service at the church’s international headquarters in Ojodu Berger, Lagos.
Speaking on the series “Dealing with Ungodly Patterns and Curses,” Dr Okafor emphasized that being a Christian does not automatically exempt an individual from inherited patterns or curses.
According to the Generational Prophet, for such patterns to be broken, someone must take responsibility and apply the required spiritual principles.
He described curses as “spiritual programs designed to enforce failure,” noting that while the sacrifice of Jesus Christ offers redemption, believers must still follow divine instructions to experience complete freedom. “Deliverance is not accidental; it is enforced through understanding and obedience,” he stated.
The “Prince of Persia” Influence
Dr Okafor highlighted what he referred to as the “Prince of Persia” spirit—a force that resists spiritual progress and keeps individuals in bondage.
He explained that this influence can manifest anywhere, including within the church, by creating distractions and weakening spiritual focus.
According to him, this force often diverts attention through modern channels, particularly digital platforms. Instead of engaging with spiritual growth, individuals may become consumed with gossip, misinformation, and distractions that ultimately disconnect them from their source of help.
Breaking Free from Patterns and Curses
The cleric outlined practical steps for overcoming negative patterns:
Commitment to God: Genuine service and dedication establish a covenant relationship with God.
Consistent Prayer: Persistent and strategic prayer invites divine intervention.
Spiritual Discipline: Obedience to divine principles strengthens one’s resistance against negative influences.
He stressed that when these principles are applied, God intervenes and grants victory over recurring challenges.
Testimonies of Transformation
The service also featured testimonies highlighting what participants described as divine intervention.
One notable case involved a woman previously scheduled for a surgical procedure costing millions of naira. After prayers during a prior service, she reportedly experienced healing and later received medical confirmation of her recovery. She returned to share her testimony during the April 12, 2026 service.
Community Outreach
The Charity Sunday service concluded with the distribution of food items to widows and underprivileged members of the Ojodu Berger community, reflecting the church’s ongoing humanitarian efforts.
Overall, the service combined teaching, testimonies, and outreach, reinforcing the church’s emphasis on spiritual growth, practical faith, and community impact.
