Less than 48 hours to the start of the much-awaited 2023 Election Campaigns, the
Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has again warned the 18 registered political parties that fielded candidates for the forthcoming general elections to desist from making any form of unguarded statements or abusive languages / hate speeches ahead of Wednesday’s commencement of election campaign.
The Commission specifically urged all the registered parties to critically study and pay attention to the provisions of the Constitution, the 2022 Electoral Act, the Police Act and the Public Order Act for proper and peaceful conduct of political campaigns, rallies and processions.
