CSOs Canvass Immediate Reform Of INEC Politics
“From what INEC announced, the figures fall within our confidence limit and margin of errors,” She added.
Also, the director of programmes, Yiaga Africa, Cynthia Mbamalu said as CSO, they will continue to promote democracy, urging Nigerians not to be discouraged in the process. “We will continue to ensure that strong institutions are built. We will continue to ensure democracy thrives. “We have to commend Nigerians who voted. They spent over 12 hours in the spirit of patriotism. We need to build in that and ensure that the process outlift individuals,” Cynthia said.
According to the report, an independent post-election review by a group of civil society organisations that observed the election, alongside representatives from legal bodies, should be constituted to provide a report and recommendations on a way forward for continued improvement in the management of elections and the operational deployment required and the role for INEC and other key stakeholders.
