The National Chairman of the Inter-Party Advisory Council (IPAC), Engr Yabagi Sani, has urged voters in Imo, Kogi, and Bayelsa to resist actions that could undermine the democratic principles guiding the upcoming off-season elections on Saturday, November 11.
In a press conference on Thursday, Sani emphasized that a vibrant democracy depends on active citizen participation, informed decision-making, and trust in the governing institutions.
“Insecurity, whether stemming from insurgency, banditry, or other forms of violence, creates an atmosphere of fear and uncertainty which not only jeopardizes the safety of citizens but also undermines their confidence in the government’s ability to provide security and maintain law and order,” he said.
He further explained that the collated results would be ahead of those of the Independent Electoral Commission at the Ward, LG, and State Collation Centres. Furthermore, the IPAC Chairman admonished INEC to work diligently in persuading security agencies to play by the rules of engagement, emphasizing their involvement in the electoral process must be based on professionalism, neutrality, and a commitment to the defence of democracy.
