How Jonathan’s Government, PDP Tried To Manipulate 2015 Elections – Jega by newsbook: 6:53pm On Oct 29, 2017


Attahiru Jega, former Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, has disclosed that the immediate past government of ex-President Goodluck Jonathan attempted to interfere with the 2015 elections.

Jega claimed that Jonathan’s government tried to “interfere with the decision of INEC to use electronic card readers”.


In an interview with Jamie Hitchen, a policy researcher at Africa Research Institute, Jega said the attempt was resisted by the body.

Jega, however, commended the former President, saying he meant well for “our democracy”.

According to the former INEC boss, Jonathan granted all the financial requests of INEC.

He said, “The administration of Goodluck Jonathan, president from 2010 to 2015, never gave any reason to suspect that there was a deliberate and wilful attempt to emasculate the funding of INEC.


“For this they should be applauded. No situation arose where we had to go cap-in-hand to the executive looking for funding and I must add that when supplementary funding was needed, it was nearly always forthcoming.

“For most of the time during our tenure, President Jonathan tried not to personally interfere with the Commission’s work.

“Only in the run-up to the 2015 election did his government and ruling political party seek to interfere with the decision of INEC to use electronic card readers.

“We were able to remind them that they had supported the idea and funded it. Overall I think that President Jonathan meant well for democracy in our country, a view strengthened by the gracious way he conceded electoral defeat in 2015.”


He said the experiences of the Anambra election of 2013 and Osun, Ekiti in 2014, helped the commission to prepare well for the 2015 general election.

He is still better than anything you dream to be.

Your generations to come will still reverence him.

Your enemies and well wishers will still bow before him

Your immediate and extended family will do the highest skull mining sorry sacrifice to be 1/100 of his person.

Why is Jega giving us half truth....

What about the underaged voters APC used in the North and which was done with the clear knowledge of INEC. This one no be attempt oo, but was actually done.

What about the multiple finger printing done by APC again in the North

Haba Jega

2015 is almost 3 years ago.

Jega is stuck in the past.

Indeed with the mess APC is creating maybe it wouldn't have been a bad thing if GEJ had interfered with the elections.

Not that GEJ was a good president...but at least he only said he was humble, not claimed to be a saint.

Bros, we'll also appreciate you tell us how much APC gave you for your retirement, your vacation destination plus how many land and housing properties you acquired as deal for the successful kinkumcrakum.
Vacation is over I guess, Jega scoring some political points to gain entrance and popularity, dude has to remain relevant. Don't quote me, I never indicate GEJ won either
