INEC not ready for free and fair election in 2023 – Moghalu

Professor Kingsley Moghalu, a former Deputy Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) who contested for the office of president in the 2019 general election, on Saturday said the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) is not prepared for a free and fair election in Nigeria in 2023, going by its not-too-impressive method of distribution of Permanent Voter Cards (PVCs).

POLITICS NIGERIA reports that according to Moghalu, PVC registration and collection is an “acid test” for INEC.

“If @inecnigeria cannot ensure that every potential voter who has registered actually receives his or her #PVC, it cannot claim that it is prepared for a free and fair election. PVC registration and collection is the acid test.

“Nigerians are fired up for the 2023 elections. Their desire to perform their civic responsibility should not be frustrated by inefficiency or other factors of weak institutional service delivery.

“I want to give @inecnigeria benefit of doubt. But, las las, talk na do,” Moghalu wrote on his verified Twitter handle.
