UMUAHIA — The Kwankwaso National Network (KNN) has said it has developed what it described as “water-tight” measures to tackle vote buying, protect the integrity of the ballot and increase voter participation across the five South-East states ahead of the 2027 general elections.
The group also disclosed that it has mobilised its members and grassroots structures across the region to monitor the activities of politicians before, during and after the elections, insisting that every legitimate vote cast by the electorate must count.
The South-East Coordinator of KNN, Dr Ukpai Iro Ukpai, disclosed this in a statement made available to journalists in Umuahia.
According to him, the group has commenced extensive voter education campaigns aimed at sensitising eligible voters on the dangers of selling their votes, describing vote buying as one of the biggest threats to credible elections and good governance.
