The National Chairman of the Inter-Party Advisory Council , Engr Yabagi Sani, has disclosed that approximately 94% of elective offices in Nigeria’s 2023 elections were expected to be determined through court verdicts due to flawed electoral laws.

He also pointed out that the judiciary should have examined these issues with a greater understanding. In light of these observations, Sani laid out a program of action that IPAC intends to embark upon in the coming days.This includes collaboration with other Nigerian political stakeholders to instil a firm commitment to democracy and nation-building, partnering with INEC to undertake a comprehensive audit of the voter register, and working with the National Assembly and INEC to amend the electoral legal framework.
