Ini Edo urged INEC to put their integrity to work and ensure that the people’s votes count, stressing that it would not be fair to allow the wrong people to govern the state. She also expressed her disappointment at the low voter turnout in the election, compared to the presidential election, and urged INEC to regain the people’s confidence.

“I expect INEC to be accountable and put their integrity to work for once. Looking at the social media, you will see a lot of irregularities and Nigerians have totally lost confidence in INEC; it’s very unfortunate. So, I’m hoping that to some level, they should be able to prove themselves worthy,” she said.

The actress further encouraged INEC to do the right thing, stating that the world is watching and that Nigeria cannot afford to leave its governance in the hands of the wrong people. She warned that failure to do so will leave the citizens to blame themselves.
