Blessing Ibunge in Port Harcourt

Rivers State chapter of the African Democratic Congress (ADC) has charged the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) with its constitutional responsibility to “conduct free, fair, and credible elections.”

The state Chairman of the ADC, Dr. Chukwudi Dimkpa, who gave the charge in Port Harcourt yesterday, expressed the expectation that the commission would discharge its responsibility professionally.

He said the credibility of the 2027 elections would not only be important for political parties; “it will be important for the stability and democratic future of Nigeria. At the end of the day, Nigerians deserve elections in which every vote counts and every voter matters.

“We acknowledge that there have been concerns and controversies surrounding previous elections, but democracy requires us to continue engaging constructively with the electoral process.
