The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) says it is fully prepared to conduct a credible and transparent election as voters head to the polls in Anambra state on Saturday.
INEC’s Supervising National Commissioner, Ken Ukeagu, gave the assurance on the eve of the election.
“The mandate is to go and give Nigerians, and Anambra people in particular, fair, credible and inclusive elections, and that is what we are going to do tomorrow,” he said.
The electoral commission has been under pressure to guarantee a smooth and credible process following challenges experienced in previous polls, including late arrival of materials, malfunctioning of the Bimodal Voter Accreditation System (BVAS), and logistical delays.
However, Ukeagu dismissed concerns over possible glitches, saying materials and personnel will arrive early at the polling units.
