Pre-voting – Evidence


“The impartiality, independence and effectiveness of election administrators are critical to a credible and democratic electoral process. Actions taken by INEC in the leadup to the elections generated concerns over INEC’s preparedness, independence and impartiality, and prospects for a transparent process. INEC did not begin publicising details of how polling would be organised until April 8.Prior to this, INEC officials made contradictory statements about whether voting would be a day-long process or would follow the “June 12 formula,” with initial accreditation and returning to vote at a specific, limited time. 

“The convergence of INEC’s partisanship, operational incompetence and the self inflicted 11th hour crisis (caused by INEC’s insistence on disqualifying Vice-President Abubakar and the Supreme Court’s decision on 16th April ordering that he be returned to" the ballot) turned logistics to a nightmare."
