TMG Criticises INEC, FG For Dismissing EU’s Electoral Report

The Transition Monitoring Group (TMG) has expressed concern over the dismissal of the European Union (EU) Electoral Report by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) and the Federal Government (FG).

In a statement by the Chairman of the election monitoring group, Comrade Auwal Musa Rasfanjani, noted that local observers and civil society groups working on election observation and democracy monitoring had also raised similar concerns about gaps in the electoral process in Nigeria.

“The recommendations by the European Union align with the views of many civil society groups and local observers. It is imperative that the government and INEC review those recommendations and work towards addressing the gaps in the electoral processes in order to make our electoral system more transparent, accountable and participatory to restore confidence in the process,” he said.

Comrade Rafsanjani also emphasized that it is only when the government genuinely ensures that transparent and accountable, free and fair elections are held, that our democracy and good governance can be consolidated and achieved in Nigeria.

“We urge President Bola Tinubu to take courage and admit to the shortcomings with the electoral process which is evident by the violence and several election petitions going on in the country and the reduction of Nigerians participation in the elections, he should emulate late President Umar Musa Yar’Adua who admitted that there were gaps in his election and committed to reform the electoral system. Therefore, TMG urges president Tinubu to ensure effective reform.

“The EU witnessed the election process and its report should not be ignored. It is disheartening to see that the government and INEC are disregarding the recommendations from the European Union who they invited to observe the elections.”

He also noted that the government and INEC may be sending the wrong message by disregarding both local election observers and the EU Election Report.

He stated that TMG insisted that electoral misconduct shouldn’t be normalized, and the government and INEC should work towards addressing electoral corruption and impunity, saying that this will greatly improve our electoral process and bring integrity.

“The EU Electoral Report and local elections observers report shouldn’t be dismissed, but rather, it should be looked into, and the necessary action should be taken to ensure free, fair, transparent and credible elections in Nigeria,” Rafsanjani added.
