Says Section 63 (2) will compromise integrity of election with fake ballot papers
Commends military salary increase, recommends housing for all personnel
Rep Abdussamad Dasuki, Deputy Minority Leader of the House of Representatives, has called on the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to reconsider the staggered arrangement for the 2027 general election and hold the federal and state elections on a single day.
Dasuki also raised concerns over Section 63 (2) of the Electoral Act which, he warned, could potentially compromise the integrity of the 2027 general election by allowing ballot papers without the prescribed official mark of the electoral commission to be counted under certain circumstances.
He said this at the weekend while receiving youths of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), who visited him to congratulate him on his emergence as deputy minority leader.
