A wave of new political parties registers with INEC amid shifting political loyalties.
INEC has confirmed a spike in requests to register new political parties this quarter, citing public disenchantment with established parties. Activists and local leaders have launched movements aiming to challenge the status quo.
Some believe the move signals growing demands for grassroots representation, while others fear it could fragment the opposition ahead of major elections.
Analysts highlight the need for electoral regulation reforms to accommodate newcomer parties without compromising stability.
Observers urge voter education on emerging coalitions to ensure informed choices in coming elections.
