Anambra guber: ADC calls for fair, transparent election

AFRICAN Democratic Congress (ADC) has urged Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to be fair, neutral and transparent in the conduct of Anambra governorship election, scheduled for November 6.

  National Chairman of the party, Raph Nwosu, made the call in a statement issued on Monday, in Awka.

  Appealing to eligible residents of the state to participate actively in the ongoing continuous voter registration (CVR) being conducted by INEC, Nwosu also called for level playing ground for all parties and their candidates.

  According to him, the only way to throw out a non-performing or bad government is through the ballot box, appealing to residents, therefore, to take the exercise with all seriousness.

  “We urge INEC to change tactics and be neutral in the coming election. Anambra people deserve free, fair and credible election, and nobody, not even INEC, should be allowed to subvert the will of the people.  

  We also urge the electorate to register and vote. INEC has opened the registration window. We must take advantage of it maximally. I must caution that democratic vitality revolves around citizens’ participation and electoral manager’s credibility, neutrality, discipline and transparency,” he said.
