ADC Campaign Council Urges INEC for Fair 2027 Elections

The Presidential Campaign Council of the African Democratic Congress (ADC-PCC) issued a warning to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) regarding potential partisanship influencing the 2027 general elections. Kola Ologbondiyan, the Director of Media and Publicity for the ADC, stated that voter registration figures are meaningless if eligible Nigerians cannot collect their Permanent Voter Cards (PVCs).

The ADC-PCC called for decentralizing PVC collection to ward levels, extending collection hours, and utilizing technology to inform voters when their cards are ready. Ologbondiyan stressed that the credibility of the elections hinges on INEC's independence, transparency, and neutrality.

He asserted that INEC must prioritize the Constitution over any political party, specifically the All Progressives Congress (APC). The ADC-PCC accused INEC of risking public confidence if voters face unequal access to PVCs and reiterated their commitment to a free, fair, and credible electoral process.
