“Let’s put the enemies of progress to shame and use our powers correctly by voting for those that will represent us well. Vote for servants of the people and not modern slave masters.
“I am appealing to the electoral empire(INEC) to adhere to Electoral Act 2022, in transmitting voting results from polling unit. Any technical hitches previously encountered in the presidential election must be corrected before the governorship/State Assembly election on March 18, 2023. The commission must be seen to be above board for stakeholders to have faith in the electoral process.”
