The Chairman of the House of Representatives Committee on Works, Akin Alabi, has warned the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, that the scheduled dates for the 2027 general elections, which fall during the Islamic holy month of Ramadan, violate regulations.
Alabi, in a tweet via his X account on Saturday, also insisted that the only solution is a quick amendment to the Electoral Act to reduce the notice period required by INEC.
“Bringing the elections earlier to start before Ramadan will run afoul of the Electoral Act, which requires 365 days’ notice,” Alabi said.
“The only solution is a quick amendment to the Electoral Act to reduce the notice period. That, I’m sure, we will do.”
