• Urges National Assembly to return electoral bill to President within 10 daysFormer Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission , Prof. Attahiru Jega, has said Nigeria should go into the next election with a new law, just as he called on the National Assembly and President Muhammadu Buhari to pass the Electoral Bill so that INEC can hit the ground running towards the 2023 elections.
He said while there could be some grey areas in the Electoral Bill that President Muhammadu Buhari declined assent to, there are other good things in the bill, arguing that the baby should not be thrown away with the bath water. “Speaking on direct and indirect primaries, some people believe that governors do influence the outcome of indirect primaries and some feel direct primaries is a way out of this, but the question is, how many parties have credible register of members?
He lamented that the commission has a short period to put a lot of its mechanisms together for the conduct of the elections.
