Mr Yakubu assured Nigerians that INEC has no preferred party or candidate as former Vice President Atiku Abubakar of the PDP, Anambra ex-Governor Peter Obi of Labour Party and Bola Tinubu of APC seek to succeed President Muhammadu Buhari in office next year.

The chairman said as the 2023 general elections drew near, stakeholders, especially political parties, should note the major features introduced by the Electoral Act 2022.

“These changes include amongst others, the conduct of early party primaries by political parties, technological changes in the electoral process,” the INEC boss explained. “The commission’s power to review the decision of the returning officer and overvoting based on the number of accredited voters.”
