The Abuja School of Social and Political Theory has called on the Independent National Electoral Commission to engage as many professionals as possible to guarantee credible elections come next month.
The Director of ASSPT, Dr. Sam Amadi, in a press conference held in Abuja yesterday, explained that the “objective of the observatory is to offer an independent analysis of the challenges of free and fair election and help INEC in its preparations towards the 2023 general elections.” He explained that the institution will not engage “in election monitoring but rather in observing and analyzing the processes and procedures that guarantee fairness and credibility of voting and declaration of results”.
He said: “We want to commend INEC for the decision to use its staff to conduct the election rather than academics outside its control. By establishing a committee of its senior management and taking ownership of the process, INEC is proving that it is learning from the failures of the past and is determined to conduct more efficient and reliable elections in 2023.
