The Independent National Electoral Commission has said it would ensure the glitches that occurred during the February 25 elections would not repeat themselves in the governorship elections across the country on Saturday.
Festus Okoye, the chairman of the INEC’s Information and Voter Education Committee, provided the guarantee on Arise TV on Friday.
He claimed that the commission had learned a lot from the February 25 presidential and National Assembly elections, emphasizing that election supplies will reach the voting locations on Saturday early enough.
The commission is resolved to outperform its prior achievements, according to Mr. Okoye. We have drawn important lessons from previously held elections, and we’re going to apply those lessons to our planning objectives, processes, and deployment goals.
“As of today, what we’re having is what we call state assembly and governorship elections,” Mr. Okoye said in response to a question about the commission’s readiness.
The Bimodal Voter Accreditation System devices and all sensitive election materials have departed the Central Bank and the various state offices of the federation, according to the statement.
