A group, The Electoral Hub (TEH), has described the “delay or refusal” by National Assembly to pass the Electoral Act Amendment Bill as an attempt by politicians to manipulate the electoral system for self-interest. The Team Lead of TEH, an organ of the Initiative for Research, Innovation and Advocacy in Development (IRIAD), Princess Hamman-Obels, told The Guardian, in an interview, that the foot-dragging by the lawmakers on matters concerning electoral reform revealed that they “have no interest in safeguarding the integrity and credibility of the electoral process.” x Hamman-Obels, who described moves by Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to introduce technology into the electoral system as commendable, pointed out that the fear expressed by the commission regarding a new legal framework to guide its action was valid.
