The Independent National Electoral Commission INEC has said
one-year imprisonment or a fine of N500,000 awaits anyone found guilty of
buying votes during the 2023 elections.
The INEC Commissioner in Jigawa State, Professor Muhammad
Lawal Bashar said this in an interview with newsmen.
The Commissioner said the electoral commission is prepared
to conduct all the elections with the BVAS machine to ensure free and fair
elections.
” The machine will identify voters going to vote and those who have registered more than once will not be able to vote.
Professor Muhammad said the Commission has received over one
hundred and fifty-six permanent voter cards which are still under distribution
until 22 January 2023.
He advised those who have registered but have not collected
their voter cards to do so before the closing date.

will allow the people with special needs, the elderly and pregnant women to
vote easily.
