The Nigerian Senate has formally declared open the public hearing on vote-buying and improving electoral processes in the country.

This was contained in a tweet on the verified Twitter handle of the Nigerian Senate @NGRSenate@

Earlier, Senate President Bukola Saraki had welcomed the National Assembly Joint Committee on INEC to the one-day event, even as the Chairman, Senate Committee on INEC, Senator Suleiman Nazif, led the opening prayer and welcomed the Bukola Saraki, House Speaker Yakub Dogara, senators and honourable members.

Nazif, in his welcome address, said the National Assembly amended the Act, noting, “Any person who processes fake voters card or violates the rules and regulation is liable to five-year imprisonment.”

“It is not only the responsibility of the legislators, but the Executive, Police, Armed Forces and other agencies are to ensure credible elections,” Nazif said.

Good Afternoon... [Nairalander]

APC is buying votes in my village with large sums of money, i wonder where they got the money from.

Interesting development. All hands must be on deck to sanitize this country.

Tradermoni a sophisticated way of buying votes

Nice one

This country is tramadoxically sick. Oh God repair it for us.

That's one of the weapon bubu is afraid to lose alongside manual voting..

If it is true that our votes does not count then why do politicians keep buying the votes..voting is our right..let's come out in mass to vote in 2019..Vote the candidate of your choice...Say no to lobbying and vote buying..

When a short imp/shrine statue of a so-called APC-VP goes from door to door, like a street-hawker selling his LOOTERMONI of the PEOPLEMONI schemes barely 3 months to the s-election process, I don’t know what else PVC/VOTER-BUYING is.

Over here, they were told to open account with access bank and GTB.

Sai baba.

Saraki is angry that those Monies are giving directly to the poor and the petty traders.. Meanwhile foolish intellectuals will support bailing of failed banks with trillions of natural.. FG spends less than 100bn to stimulate SMEs.

Please keep touching the life of the common man. No more corrupt third party or middle men like the days of sure-p where 6k we're paid to beneficiaries is some quarters instead of 20k..

they say if you want to know someone's real attitude, give him money or power but the combination of both is something else

Since it was approved by the Presidency and the National House of Assembly, it simply means we are all guilty if your assertion is right.
