THE NATIONAL PUBLICITY SECRETARY OF THE RULING ALL PROGRESSIVES CONGRESS, APC, SAYS THE SENATE AND THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES WERE PRAGMATIC AND REALISTIC IN PASSING THE ELECTORAL AMENDMENT ACT.
FELIX MORKA WAS REACTING TO THE RECENT PASSAGE OF THE ELECTORAL ACT BY THE NATIONAL ASSEMBLY AND ITS IMMEDIATE SIGNING INTO LAW BY PRESIDENT BOLA TINUBU.
HOWEVER, CHAIRMAN OF THE PEERING ADVOCACY AND ADVANCEMENT CENTRE IN AFRICA EZENWA NWAGWU, SAYS VOTERS SHOULD BE GIVEN AT LEAST 48 HOURS NOTICE BEFORE ANY POLLING UNIT IS SPLIT OR RELOCATED.
REPORT HAS IT THAT PRESIDENT TINUBU SIGNED THE ELECTORAL ACT, 2022, REPEAL AND RE-ENACTMENT BILL 2026 INTO LAW, BARELY 24 HOURS AFTER IT WAS PASSED BY THE NATIONAL ASSEMBLY.
MEANWHILE, THE SPEEDY SIGNING OF THE ACT HAS, HOWEVER, GENERATED NATIONAL DEBATES FROM VARIOUS QUARTERS OF THE COUNTRY, WITH MANY CRITICIZING THE PRESIDENT FOR SUCH A SPEED.
