The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has condemned the “rig and die” slogan being popularised by some political actors ahead of the 2027 general elections, warning that it could expose innocent Nigerians to electoral violence
The Commission also vowed that any electoral official, including ad hoc personnel, found to have compromised the electoral process would face the full weight of the law.
INEC National Commissioner and Chairman, Information and Voter Education Committee, Mohammed Kudu Haruna, gave the warnings at a media engagement forum for journalists and media executives from the South-East, South-South and South-West geopolitical zones in Enugu.
Haruna cautioned politicians against inflammatory rhetoric and threats capable of endangering ordinary Nigerians engaged as presiding officers, ad hoc staff, party agents and election observers.
