The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), says it will be meeting with security agencies on how to put an end to the destruction of its facilities across the country on May 24, 2021.
Mahmood Yakubu, Chairman of the commission, made this known during a meeting with stakeholders on Wednesday.
He said the incessant attacks on its offices and facilities are capable of hindering upcoming electoral activities in the country.
He also said exercises such as the continuous voter registration (CVR), and others might be seriously affected due to the attacks.
“The commission will certainly work with the security agencies to deal with the perpetrators of these heinous crimes according to the law. To this end, a meeting with all the security agencies is holding on Monday 24th May 2021,” he said.
“However, this must be done quickly to forestall disruptions to several upcoming electoral activities, particularly the CVR exercise which we plan to undertake continuously in 2,673 centres nationwide,” he added.
