Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission , Prof. Mahmood Yakubu, has declared that the commission will no longer accredit civil society organisations that fail to submit a report of their monitoring after every election.
He said: “While many of you have submitted your reports, some accredited observers are yet to do so for the general election, supplementary elections, off-cycle elections, by-elections and re-run elections. He assured that INEC will continue to partner with CSOs in the conduct of its activities, adding that the commission appreciates the observations and recommendations contained in the election reports submitted.
Meanwhile, the Inter Party Advisory Council , yesterday, embarked on a post-election visitation programme, to foster unity within political parties.

It is instructive to note that the council got a sound judgment in favour of the council.
