‘Enough of the excuses’: Atiku’s aide challenges INEC over the 2023 election

Paul Ibe, media aide to African Democratic Congress (ADC) presidential candidate Atiku Abubakar, criticized INEC for describing problems during the 2023 election as a “technical glitch.” He called on commission chairman Joash Amupitan to explain what failed, who was responsible, and what steps have been taken to prevent a recurrence. Ibe said the problems cast doubt on the transparency, integrity, and credibility of the presidential election. He also demanded that INEC release the voters list ahead of the 2027 election.
