Recall few hours ago, the Socio-Economic Rights and Accountability Project Group (SERAP) also called on Professor Mahmood Yakubu, the Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to extend deadline for voter registration in Nigeria.
According to SERAP, the extension would “give more time for eligible Nigerians to exercise their right to participation the same way the electoral body has extended the deadline for party primaries”.
Recall Nigeria’s Electoral body made a U-turn last week by suddenly extending the deadline for the conduct of primaries by political parties by six days, from June 3 to June 9.
