IPAC Faults 2015 INEC's Election Timetable ~ The Sequence is not Favorable

The Inter Party Advisory Council (IPAC) yesterday expressed concern at the sequencing of the timetable by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) as well as the integrity of the voter register being compiled by the commission.

This was stated by the chairman of IPAC, who is also the national chairman of the National Conscience Party (NCP) Yunusa Tanko, during an INEC/political parties dialogue aimed at building consensus on electoral activities towards 2015.

However, the ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has hailed the sequence, while the chairman of United Peoples Party (UPP) Chief Chekwas Okorie, and his Labour Party (LP) counterpart, Chief Dan Nwanyanwu, saw nothing wrong with the sequence of the election, adding that the constitution empowers INEC to fix dates for election. But Tanko said his position had the backing of about 80 percent of political parties.

He said: “Political parties are worried about the sequence of the election which provides for a two-phase elections with the presidential and the National Assembly coming up first and the governorship and state assembly coming up next as against in the past which had a three-phase election with state assemblies, governorship, presidential and National Assembly coming up in that sequence.
