The Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC has reinstated its commitment to strengthening public confidence in Nigeria’s electoral process, as it begins early strategic preparations for the 2026 off-cycle elections and the 2027 general election.
The Chairman of INEC, Joash AMUPITAN, said this in Lagos on Tuesday.
Amupitan further described the workshop as timely, saying the commission is navigating a critical phase of leadership transition marked by changes at the top and the retirement of several directors and senior management staff after years of service.
He said that institutional continuity must be anchored on “clarity of purpose, integrity of leadership and unity of vision, rather than the mere preservation of structures.
