Democracy on Trial: CNPP Charges INEC to Stay Impartial in Edo Election.


Abuja, Nigeria - September 21, 2024

The Conference of Nigeria Political Parties (CNPP) has warned the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to maintain its neutrality and ensure the sanctity of the electoral process in the Edo State Governorship Election.

In a statement signed by its Deputy National Publicity Secretary, Comrade James Ezema, the CNPP emphasized that "As Edo State citizens exercise their right to vote, it is crucial that INEC remains impartial and transparent, especially during the collation of results."

The CNPP insisted that INEC must safeguard the trust of Nigerians by prioritizing the integrity of the process, warning against manipulation or undermining democracy in the state.

"INEC must not allow itself to be used to scuttle democracy in Edo State under any circumstances," the CNPP cautioned.

With the Ondo State governorship election looming, the CNPP stressed the importance of INEC demonstrating its commitment to conducting credible elections to restore confidence in the electoral process after the questionable 2023 general elections.

"We call on all stakeholders, including political parties, candidates, and security agencies, to prioritize peace and decorum during the collation process," the CNPP said. "Let us work together to strengthen Nigeria's democracy by allowing citizens to freely choose their leaders."

The CNPP's call to action comes as Nigerians watch closely to see if INEC will deliver on its promise of free, fair, and credible elections.
