Ahead of the presentation of the report of the Senate Committee on the Independent National Electoral Commission on the Electoral Act (Amendment) Bill, President of the Senate, Ahmad Lawan, has allayed the fears over the alleged insertion of contentious clauses in the Committee final draft.
There has been a media report of removal of clauses for electronic transmission of results in the final draft of the report to be submitted by its Chairman, Senator Kabiru Gaya.
Speaking on Monday at the swearing-in ceremony of the Chief Commissioner and Commissioners of the Public Complaints Commission, Senator Lawan said neither the leadership of both chambers of National Assembly nor members of the Committee on INEC would foist their recommendations on their colleagues in both chamber.
