Atiku Raises Alarm Over Senate's Delay in Passing Electoral Fraud Bill
Former Vice President Atiku has expressed concern over the Nigerian Senate's apparent determination to frustrate the passage of a bill aimed at punishing electoral fraud. The bill, intended to curb vote rigging and strengthen penalties for electoral malpractice, has faced delays in the Senate despite being on the legislative agenda since December 3, 2025.
Atiku emphasized the importance of finalizing the amendments to the Electoral Act to address loopholes and ensure updated laws for the 2023 elections. The Senate's failure to pass the bill has raised questions about the integrity of the electoral process in Nigeria.
