Timi Frank Warns INEC Against Election Rigging in 2027

Timi Frank, the former Deputy National Publicity Secretary of the All Progressives Congress (APC), issued a warning to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) regarding the upcoming 2027 elections. He stated that any attempt to rig the elections would be met with rejection from Nigerians, who would take their destiny into their own hands.

Frank expressed his concerns about allegations of AI-generated names and photographs in the national voter register, calling for urgent investigation and verification of questionable entries. He emphasized the need for INEC to transparently explain how the voter register was compiled.

Frank compared potential unrest in Nigeria to recent events in France and Germany, suggesting that it would be more severe. Additionally, he urged President Bola Tinubu to apologize to Atiku Abubakar, the presidential candidate of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), for previously criticizing a proposal similar to the government's recent announcement of a 30-day petrol discount at NNPCL retail outlets.
