The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has promised Nigerians that the 2023 general election will be the best in the row of elections it has conducted so far.
The commission’s assurance came as citizens applauded it for the smooth conduct of the Osun State governorship election last Saturday.
INEC Chairman, Professor Mahmood Yakubu, spoke when he hosted delegations of the International Republican Institute (IRI) and the National Democratic Institute (NDI) yesterday in Abuja.
He said: “As for the preparation for the 2023 general election, I want to assure you that we promised Nigerians that Ekiti was going to be good, and Ekiti was a good election.
“We promised that Osun was going to be better, and Osun was a better election. We are promising that the 2023 general election will be our best election ever, and we are committed to delivering the best election ever. We are encouraged by your kind words, but there is still a lot of work to do.
“We assure you that we will continue to work, not only hard but even harder, to deliver the 2023 general election.
“I have listened to some of the issues raised, but perhaps when we go into the working session there will be an opportunity for us to respond to some of the issues.”
