| 2010 amended electoral act to aid smooth elections | ||||||
Alhaji Musa said only credible and generally acceptable election could restore the diminishing faith of Nigerians in the electoral process. At an interactive meeting with the INEC Management, the Law Maker enjoined Professor Jega to utilize the leverage created by the National Assembly in the removal of all sections pertaining to electoral matters and vesting same in the 2010 Electoral Act. He explained that the 2010 Electoral Act recently passed had amended all relevant sections likely to impede the conduct of a smooth election. In a remark, the INEC Chairman, Professor Attahiru Jega told the committee that the commission wanted to procure the Direct Data Capturing Machine from the manufacturer and would therefore need a waiver. The INEC Chairman said, if fund was released to the commission by the middle of August, compilation of voters register would be concluded ahead of the 2011 elections. |
