At the event, INEC will provide updates on election preparations, including the voters’ register, candidate nominations, logistics, and measures to ensure electoral integrity. INEC Chairman, Prof. Joash Amupitan, will address the attendees, which will include political party leaders, security agencies, members of the diplomatic corps, civil society organizations, and other stakeholders.

The meeting will take place at the Bola Ahmed Tinubu International Conference Centre (BAT-ICC) starting at 10 a.m. and will be broadcast live on national television and streamed on INEC’s social media platforms.
