The Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC has described the cost of operations and logistics in the country as enormous.
INEC National Commissioner and Chairman of the Board of The Electoral Institute, Solomon Shoyebi said that the Commission would continue to review the cost of elections.
A statement by INEC Director of Voter Education and Publicity, Oluwole Osaze-Uzzi, quoted Shoyebi as making the assertion at a one-day round table held in Abuja with the theme: “Revisiting the Template for INEC’s Election Operations and Logistics Plan’’. It was organised by the Commission through its Training, Research and Documentation outfit, the Electoral Institute, TEI.
Shoyebi said the cost of election operation and logistics is enormous and it’s an exercise the Commission continues to review from one election to another.
It also quoted National Commissioner Amina Zakari as urging all stakeholders to own the process by dispensing positive and productive attitudes that could promote an enduring electoral environment. @��&���
