Nigerians in Diaspora Organisation Europe, NIDO-Europe has commended the National Assembly for adopting clause 52 (3) in the Electoral Act Amendment Bill 2021.
The Bill stipulates that voting during election and transmission of results shall be in accordance with the procedure determined by the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC.
Further to this, the organisation urged the Nigerian Government to consider amendment of the constitution to allow Nigerians abroad to vote during elections.
Continental Chairman of NIDO Europe, Mr. Bashir Obasekola said”: This adoption is indeed a step in the right direction as it allows INEC to be more technologically inclined and introduce more technology into the electoral process.”
