The
Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), Prof.
Attahiru Jega, says the era of politicians winning elections by hook or
crook is over.
The INEC Chairman said this in Makurdi, the
Benue State capital, during a meeting with the candidates for
governorship and house of assembly elections slated for April 11.
Professor Jega also promised to ensure that a level-playing field is provided for all candidates in the polls.
He
explained that many INEC materials were damaged during the Presidential
and National Assembly elections in Benue, pointing out that the
commission had to replace about 200 card readers there.
The INEC Chairman warned electoral officials that they would be held responsible if they scuttle the polls in any way.
