Incoming Government Should Punish Electoral Fraudsters - INEC Chief by milestonejnr(m): 6:50am On Apr 17, 2015
In an address at the presentation of Certificates of Return to the Ogun State Governor, Senator Ibikunle Amosun, who was re-elected for a second term, and National Assembly members-elect in the state.
Prof. Lai Olurode, the National Commissioner of the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, in charge of Ogun, Osun and Ekiti States, made an appeal to the incoming administration of Gen. Muhammadu Buhari to arrest and punish prominent Nigerians who were involved in electoral malpractice during the election.

He believes it will serve as a lesson to the rest of the mass.

He said,
“In the past, those who perpetrated electoral fraud, the notable among them, have not been brought to book, that is why it continues.
“I will want the incoming government to make examples of some prominent election fraudsters.
“For us in INEC, we feel frustrated by the harassment, intimidation, maiming and the killings that attended the just concluded general elections in some states.
“We have always canvassed for an Election Offences Commission to deal with election security challenges in Nigeria. The is a need to make examples of big men, who perpetrate electoral crimes.”
