The Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, has said that there won’t be any bags of cash at the polling places for the 2023 elections, and that Saturday’s presidential and national assembly elections will be no different.
Moreover, INEC declared that it had completed planning to hold credible elections in Rivers State and urged all candidates and politicians to adhere to the ground rules.
Mark Osulo, the head of INEC Rivers State’s voter education program, spoke yesterday at a national roundtable on the path to credible and violent-free general elections in 2023 that was held in Port Harcourt.
Osulo declared that the election on Saturday would be free and fair, saying that the Federal Government’s new monetary strategy had prevented vote buying.
