The Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC says constitutional and legal alterations and amendments alone cannot solve the challenges of the electoral process in the country.

The INEC National Commissioner and Chairman, Information and Voter Education Committee, Festus Okoye said this at the Post 2019 General Elections Review Meeting with the Media in Lagos.

According to him, as the country looks forward to off-season elections, the media, civil society organisations, political parties, the executive and the legislature must tease out areas of the Constitution that are problematic, ambiguous or where we have lacuna.

He said that such areas should be harvested, turned into bills and presented to the National Assembly for legislative action.

Okoye said that the commission had carried out and was still carrying out in-house review of the 2019 elections, urging all stakeholders to do the same.
