The Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, has
said it is working closely with security agencies to trace and arrest any
politician who engages in vote buying in the coming 2023 general election.
The Head of Information and Communication Technology on
Voters registration in Jigawa State, Alhaji Aliyu Abdullahi Alawa stated this
while responding to questions from newsmen on Friday.
He explained that vote buying is a very serious offense
under the new Electoral Act and that any person caught would face prosecution.
“We will ensure that there will be no more vote buying
during the coming 2023 General election,” he said.
He advised electorates not to allow themselves to be
disenfranchised by selfish interest politicians anr to report any incident to
the security agencies.
Alawa reiterated the commission’s commitment to ensure a
free, fair, and credible election.
