The INEC Chairman, Mahmood Yakubu recently had his say at the validation of election security training resources held in Abuja, and Nigerians have been reacting.
According to him, the forthcoming election clearly faces serious threat of cancellation should the insecurity across the country fail to improve, therefore nothing will be left to chance in the fight against insecurity.
He added that if the insecurity is not monitored and dealt with decisively, it could ultimately culminate in the cancellation and/or postponement of elections in sufficient constituencies to hinder declaration of election results and precipitate constitutional crisis.
His words, “We all appreciate the fact that election security is vital to democratic consolidation through provision of enabling environment for the conduct of free, fair, credible and inclusive elections and thus strengthening the electoral process.”
“Consequently, in preparations for the 2023 general elections, the commission is not leaving anything to chance in ensuring that intensive and extensive security are provided for election personnel, materials and processes.”
“This is particularly significant to the commission given the current insecurity challenges in various parts of the country and the fact that the National Youth Service Corps members constitute the core of the polling unit election officials.”
“This must not be allowed to happen and shall not be allowed to happen.”
“Therefore, security personnel in particular and all election officials, in general, must be security conscious and alert to unusual activities in their environment and must be fully equipped to deal with any challenge at all times.”
