INEC to Punish Erring Parties Over Violation of Electoral Timelines
The Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC says it would punish political parties found to be violating electoral timelines as well as provisions of the new Electoral Act 2022 (as amended) especially during the 2023 elections.
The commission also maintained its ground not to jettison electronic transmission of results and revert to manual process and would not lower the bar in next year’s election.
INEC National Commissioner and Chairman of its Information and Voter Education Committee, Festus Okoye, made the clarification during a post-election roundtable and public presentation of the final report on the observation of 2022 Ekiti and Osun Governorship Election, organised by a human rights organisation, Yiaga Africa.
