Sam Amadi Questions Trust in INEC’s Tech Plans for 2027 Elections

No Nigerian should trust the Independent National Electoral Commission’s (INEC) use of technology, according to Dr. Sam Amadi, director of the Abuja School of Social and Political Thought.

Amadi made this statement on Sunday during the Election Act 2026 Citizens Town Hall Meeting in Abuja, the country’s capital.

According to him, INEC’s technology should be audited by a nonpartisan body.

“We finished the 2023 election with so many allegations and so many issues,” he said.

“No public hearing was held by the National Assembly, and neither Mahmood nor any of the officers were sworn to testify about what transpired. That’s chaotic!

“INEC’s technology deployment should not be trusted by anyone.”
