The Supreme Court has ordered the Electoral Commission to submit before it, a “comprehensive” list of all persons who registered with NHIS cards in 2012, by June 29.

The orders follows the interpretation/confusion that ensued between the Electoral Commission and Abu Ramadan, the plaintiff who went to court to seek interpretation of the legality or otherwise of such names in the electoral roll.

Ramadan therefore went to court to seek clarification on the initial judgement that asked the EC to take steps to remove names of NHIS registrants from the register.

Additionally, the the Court directed the EC to develop a guideline on the specific processes and methods they intend to adopt in implementing the orders in the May 5 judgement on the voters register, starrfmonline reported.
