The election review which started at the commission’s headquarters in Abuja today, will last through August 5.

The Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), Prof Mahmood Yakubu, and Resident Electoral Commissioners (RECs) have commenced a review on the just concluded 2023 general polls in the country.

As announced earlier by INEC spokesperson, Festus Okoye, the election review which started at the commission’s headquarters in Abuja today, will last through August 5.

The commission will also make a retreat after reviewing the election activities, Naija News understands.

Recall that INEC declared the All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu as the winner of the February 25 presidential election.

However, two main challengers of the APC candidate, Peter Obi of the Labour Party (LP) and Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), are presently in court to challenge the declaration by INEC.

In their different petitions, they alleged various electoral malpractices, voters suppression, violence, the supposed inefficiency of the Bimodal Voter Accreditation System (BVAS) and INEC Result Viewing Portal (IREV) as well as insisting that the poll was not free and fair.
