INEC has broken the trust of Nigerians – Osinbajo’s aide 

Laolu Akande, the media aide to former Nigerian Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, expressed on the ‘Politics Today’ program on Channels Television that the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) shattered Nigerians’ trust by not electronically transmitting the results of the 2023 presidential and National Assembly elections as promised.

Akande also highlighted INEC’s failure to deliver on its commitment to publish polling unit results on their Result Viewing Portal.

“It is important to establish something we cannot basically run away from. INEC came out of this election as a damaged goods, he said

“There is no doubt about that. INEC itself set up a standard. INEC determined the guidelines. INEC committed to the people of Nigeria that this is how we are going to declare the result of this election.

“In fact, the Chairman of INEC went abroad and said, ‘What we are going to do is that these results, when we get it, we will put it on IReV in real-time’,” Akande said.
