The legal expert alleged a compromise on the part of security agencies, state governors as well as INEC officials.

While charging the electoral commission to go back to the drawing board, Falana advocated strict prosecution of electoral offenders across the country.NYSC portal

In his words: “I’ve not been impressed by the very disappointing outing on the part of the Independent National Electoral Commission. Nigerians had been assured they were going to have a credible election – a peaceful election – whereby votes would count. Regrettably, there was a free rein of thuggery; thugs took over in many places

“There was a compromise on the part of the security forces. There was a compromise on the part of some INEC chiefs. There was impunity on the part of some governors.

“I do hope we will be able to draw sufficient lessons from the exercise. As our courts would say, there is substantial compliance with the Electoral Act because you could isolate where you had pockets of illegality, pockets of violence.

“I expect INEC to go back to the drawing board, review the management of the election, the role of the ad-hoc staff, and ensure those arrested by the police and security agencies over election disruption, rigging, and prevention of people from voting are charged before appropriate courts as soon as possible. This is to serve as lessons to those to manage elections subsequently.”JAMB Result
