Dalung Claims INEC Acts as Opposition Party in Nigeria
Solomon Dalung, who previously served as Nigeria's Minister of Youth and Sports, has publicly stated that the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) is functioning as an opposition party in Nigeria. This assertion was made during an interview on Trust TV, where Dalung, a chieftain of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), criticized INEC for failing to operate within the confines of the law.
He emphasized that the commission has declared itself opposed to the ADC, thereby undermining its role as an impartial electoral body. Dalung's comments reflect growing concerns regarding the integrity and neutrality of electoral institutions in Nigeria, particularly in the context of upcoming elections.
