Let me welcome all of you to this briefing, which is in furtherance to the Commission’s resolve to regularly brief members of the public on its activities.
1. You may recall that late last year, the Commission received a report from the EFCC in which some of our staff were accused of certain infractions. We would like to update you on the matter. A total of 202 INEC officials from 14 states were mentioned in the report. Based on the EFCC’s interim report, the Commission subsequently queried and invited them to appear before an Administrative Panel. The final report of the investigation into the matter will be considered by the Commission at its meeting next week.
