The African Democratic Congress (ADC) has declared support for the creation of a legal framework mandating the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to transmit election results electronically ahead of the 2027 general elections, saying such a move is vital to guarantee transparency and protect the sanctity of Nigerians’ votes.

The ADC National Publicity Secretary, Bolaji Abdullahi, told Vanguard on Monday that the party strongly believes making electronic transmission of results compulsory through legislation will curb manipulation and restore public confidence in the electoral process.

“If establishing a legal framework for the electronic transmission of election results will compel INEC to act rightly and deepen transparency in our electoral process, then the ADC will stand firmly in support of it,” Abdullahi stated.

“For us, anything that guarantees that the votes of the people genuinely count and protects the sanctity and integrity of our elections is not just desirable; it is an absolute necessity,” he added.
