2023: Labour Party alleges systematic disenfranchisement of voters via politicsngr
In a statement obtained by POLITICS NIGERIA, the opposition party said the two major political parties: the All Progressives Congress and the Peoples Democratic Party are “dictating” the collection of Permanent Voter’s Cards and INEC officials are “complicit”.
The statement reads: “It has come to our attention that the Independent National Electoral Commission is complicit in allowing ruling political parties in different parts of Nigeria to dictate Permanent Voter’s Card collection, as they did with Voters registration. This action will mar the integrity of the 2023 Nigerian General election, with the potential to destroy the Commission’s hard-earned independence.
“We wish to reiterate that these systematic disenfranchisement have been reported to @inecnigeria, and they have largely turned a blind eye, allowing their personnel to treat Nigerians with disdain.
