We Will No Longer Accredit Observer Groups That Don’t Submit Reports – INEC by Bobloco: 6:08am On Mar 21
The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has said it will no longer accredit civil society organisations and other bodies as observer groups if they fail to submit their observation reports of previous elections.

INEC Chairman, Prof. Mahmood Yakubu, disclosed this on Wednesday in Abuja at the first quarterly consultative meeting with Civil Society Organizations (CSOs).

Yakubu said INEC will continue to partner with Civil Society Organizations, saying the commission appreciates the observations and recommendations contained in their election observation reports.

He said, “Some of the reforms and innovations introduced by the Commission over the years draw from your observation reports. However, while many of you have submitted your reports, some accredited observers are yet to do so for the general election, supplementary elections, off-cycle elections, bye-elections, and re-run elections.

“May I therefore seize this opportunity to remind those who are yet to submit their observation reports that it is mandatory to do so, being one of the conditions for eligibility to observe future elections? Going forward, the Commission will operate strictly on the policy of ‘No Observation Report, No Accreditation.”

He said that for Edo State, 18 political parties conducted their primaries monitored by the Commission, adding that, going by the provision of the timetable and schedule of activities for the election, political parties have 20 days from March 4, 2024, to upload the list and personal particulars of their candidates to our dedicated web portal.

Yakubu explained that eight parties have now filed their nominations.

“We expect the other parties to do so before the deadline of 6 p.m. on March 24, 2024, when the portal automatically shuts down. Thereafter, the Commission will publish the personal particulars of the candidates (Form EC9) on March 31, 2024, for public scrutiny as required by law.

“Turning to Ondo State, political parties will commence their primaries for the governorship election in the next two weeks. Sixteen political parties have indicated interest in participating in the election.

“I urge Civil Society Organisations (CSOs) to engage with political parties and observe their primaries just as you engage with INEC and deploy observers to the main election conducted by the Commission. By doing so, you will strengthen your advocacy for inclusivity for groups such as women, youths, and Persons with Disability (PwD) that are underrepresented in elective offices at the national and state levels,” he added.

What did INEC do with the EU, Commonwealth and other observer groups that submitted damning verdict against it in the last election? A criminal organisation trying desperately to be relevant.

INEC is just terrible! You wont give observers accreditation because they fail to submit a false report you want them to write about the elections abi?
INEC is lucky Nigeria is a peaceful country and what happen was just between the yorubas and igbos, if it was against the fulani/Hausas, by now one or five INEC offices in the North for don catch fire by now!

Though I don't appreciate how Yakubu collected billions of naira and eventually failed to implement direct transmission of data from the polling booths to the INEC server, I think this is a welcome development.

Listen, thieves and rogues cannot easily beat technology. They must adapt too. The Senate is already working on making sure direct transmission of votes is the way forward. That election Tinubu won is a stepping stone towards the right direction. He may have won that, but he will do a lot more to win 2027 if the law accepts only direct transmission of votes. Politicians will have to come up with another strategy to cheat. Of course, Nigerians always come up with ideas to beat the system, but it will not be the situation where they get inside a room and thumbprint massively to favour a candidate.

Yabuku will realise in the future the damage he did in the last election, but he can redeem himself if he is the one conducting the 2027 election.
