Ahead of the November 11, 2023, governorship polls in Imo, Bayelsa and Kogi states, the GOTNI Leadership Centre, has urged the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to avoid making past mistakes and ensure that all promises made to Nigerians are fulfilled.

The organisation argued that unfulfilled promises made by the commission would aid voter apathy, saying it would be bad for the nation’s democracy.

“Specifically, in my own context as a leadership development coach, I would like positive energies to be reflected and it will be my call to INEC to go back to the drawing board and ensure that they do not make the type of mistakes that they made in the past where they made commitments to the public and failed to fulfill those commitments.

He explained that the Emerging Leaders Conference would provide an opportunity for young people to network with their peers across the country and different sectors of the economy, thus inspiring a peer-review mechanism that would strengthen their commitment to continuous improvement, growth and making positive contributions to their immediate environment and the country at large.

“And I am already thrilled by the celebration of knowledge; the energy that is in the room. I believe that it will inspire the political class to also invest so that they will love this country like never before,” he said.
