A pressure group, Ndigbo Lagos has called for honest implementation of the Electoral Act 2022 by all stakeholders to make 2023 polls credible.
In a statement, President-General of the group, Gen. Obi Umahi, Rtd. said that the new law was a response to lessons of two decades of the nation’s democratic experience.
“For us the electoral bill is a response to many lessons we have learnt over the past two decades of our democratic experiences and we think that without the electoral Act in place, the conduct of the 2023 general elections would be in serious danger of being compromised.
