As the 2019 general elections draw near, questions have been asked of the ability of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to conduct free, fair and credible elections. This is even as the Chairman of Atiku/Obi Campaign Council in Anambra State, Mr. Oseloka H. Obaze, says he is doubtful of INEC's ability to remain a neutral umpire.

Speaking at Onitsha on Saturday, during an interactive radio program on Sapientia 95.3FM, Obaze said recent events have put a serious credibility deficit on INEC. He said the controversies surrounding by-elections and state elections of the last couple of years, especially that of Ekiti and Osun states have placed serious credibility deficits on INEC.

According to him, “INEC has a very recent track record that makes it impossible for my party or any other party, and indeed for Nigerians to say that they have implicit confidence in the ability of INEC to deliver free, fair, transparent and sufficiently credibile elections in 2019.

Obaze said the strength of the government, in any established democracy, derives from public confidence in statutory institutions which INEC is one. He called on the electoral umpire to live above the fray and ensure that the votes of Nigerians truly counts in the coming elections.

Obaze, also the candidate of the PDP in the Anambra 2017 governorship election, faulted President Muhammadu Buhari's refusal to assent the amended electoral act.

Obaze opined that, “Amina Zakari has been flagged for a potential conflict of interest. It will serve collective good if she recuses herself or be made to do so in the National interest.”
When asked about his party’s chances in the coming elections, Obaze said that the incumbent administration's abysmal performance in office has bolstered the chances of the PDP at the polls. He said Nigerians are hungry under this present administration and are rallying behind PDP’s Atiku-Obi ticket which they have come to see as a credible alternative. He however warned INEC to ensure that the coming elections are not rigged.

I don't think PDP are really ready for this election. All they have been doing is complaining here and there instead of issue based campaign that's expected of them.

It'll be rigged
And since a northerner is to assume the office of CJN,
We already know the outcome if it ever get to the Supreme Court.

Everything Buhari inherited he has destroyed within 3yrs.

The present INEC is not qualified to conduct credible elections. When the chief INEC collation officer and other INEC top personnel are busy campaigning for APC

There’s nothing like free,fair and credible election in Nigeria ...the incumbent and owns the best thugs is always the winner

Nothing to worry about. Most of the elections under this current FG have been free and fair

Stop this your usual false accusations.
Thieving thieving thieving for the past 4 years not even a single person was jailed and you can't use your head to know that APC is over 80% of former PDP party memebers.
We shouldn't be blinded by religion and unnecessary woping sentiments.

This present INEC lacks credibility

Everyone knows Inec lacks credibility. Even the buharideens knows. They’re giving us figures of registered voters, when they’re suppose to give us numbers of pvc collected.

pso

Really! Its got credibility issues just because somebody like Maurice Iwu isn't d head of INEC and it isn't d regime of OBJ/Atiku ko? These ppl think we Nigerians are fools
