The All Progressives Congress (APC), Lagos West Senatorial Candidate, Dr. Idiat Adebule, has urged the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to improve on the logistics surrounding the electoral process.
She said the voting process was not been smooth, and therefore, short of the peoples’ expectations.
Adebule, who arrived early at the Polling Unit 029 at Iba, was surprised that INEC officials didn’t turn up until 10.40a.m.
She appealed to the aggrieved electorate, who had been at the centre, as early as 7:30am, to be patient.
According to her, the late arrival of the INEC officials caused a lot of apprehension and agitation.
“Many voters are agitated. It has not always been like this. I’ve been voting here for quite a while. The turnout of voters during this election is commendable. It is better than the previous polls. People are eager to vote.
“INEC should tidy up preparations and logistics early enough and be responsive to the people. People have been waiting here from 8am and voting didn’t commence until 11.00a.m. The electorate are not happy. I’m sure the INEC can improve on this,” she said.
