Electoral Amendment Bill: Dead on arrival? By Sun Jul 25 2021 The passage of the Electoral Amendment Bill 2021 last week by the National Assembly has drawn reactions that clearly accentuate the acute sensitivity of the various sections of the country to the dispensation and its outcome. The bone of contention is the prospect or otherwise of the dispensation to foster an improvement of the country’s electoral processes through which leaders are sourced. From the gale of reactions both in support and against specific provisions of the bill, there are strong reasons for the National Assembly to recall the document for review, as it clearly has not passed the test of public acceptability. And as anyone who is adept in public administration may testify, any legislation that fails the test of public acceptability, turns out to be difficult in enforcing. Hence enacting the Electoral Bill in its present controversial state, may render it a dead-on-arrival law.
