According to the presidency, the proposed amendments “entail significant legal, financial, economic and security consequences”.
“The President’s decision to withhold assent from the Electoral Act Bill 2021 has come under scrutiny from media and political circles. This is quite correct because it is a decision that will impact all Nigerians. The President’s Office has decided therefore to issue an official statement to make its position clear,” the statement reads.
“Rather, the proposed amendments entail significant legal, financial, economic and security consequences for all Nigerians, principal among which would be a severe spike in the cost of holding primary elections by parties – integral to democracies the world over.“And who would shoulder these costs? The Nigerian taxpayer of course. And who would benefit? Only the richest of political parties.
