CSO asks national assembly to pass electoral act amendment bill in January

Advertisement The eighth national assembly had passed the bill and transmitted it to President Muhammadu Buhari for assent. But Buhari withheld his assent to the bill on the grounds that the proposed law would usurp the constitutional powers of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to decide on election matters and would create “some uncertainty about the legislation to govern the process”. The ninth senate, however, reintroduced the bill and it passed first and second reading. Advertisement In a statement on Friday, Ariyo-Dare Atoye, co-convener of the group, said the passage of the bill will rekindle the hope of Nigerians in the democratic process.

The Speaker, Hon. Femi Gbajabiamila, who unveiled the agenda had at the time, asserted that 20 years into the present democratic endeavours, the promise and benefits of democracy are yet to be fully felt in the lives of many citizens, hence the 9th House mandated itself to make the lives of citizens better and bring home the long-promised benefits of democracy.
