INEC didn’t give us the leaders of our choice; Jerry Gana, decries voters’ apathy

Prof. Jerry Gana, former Minister of Information and National Orientation, believes INEC was unfair to Nigerians during the 2023 general elections.

Gana gave his opinion on the election when he spoke with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Minna on Nigeria’s democracy and the journey so far.

The former minister blamed INEC for the current electoral challenges where many election results were being challenged in the court for alleged electoral manipulations.

He said: “Recently, INEC has not been fair to Nigerians in conducting national elections. Therefore, we have a long way to go in our democracy if we allow this ugly development to continue.

“It is true that we have introduced a lot of modern technology to improve our electoral system but these technologies are not being respected today by INEC. To me, it is a major disappointment that INEC was not fair enough to give us the leaders of our choice,” Gana stated.
