EneObi: Integrity, not amendments, key to credible 2027 elections

Former Nigeria Civil Society Situation Room convener Ene Obi emphasized integrity as the cornerstone of credible 2027 elections during an Arise Television interview. Obi stated that pushing substantial electoral reforms close to election year is challenging without unity among opposition parties and civil society acting as watchdogs. She warned that government decisions undermining public confidence could jeopardize credibility. Meanwhile, the Senate approved electronic transmission of election results with manual collation as backup, and President Tinubu signed the Electoral Act, 2022 (Repeal and Re-Enactment) Bill 2026 into law. Obi's comments highlight the critical role of opposition vigilance and institutional integrity in ensuring electoral fairness.
