”After scrutinizing the allegations, IPAC finds that BASIEC has put in place necessary arrangements to ensure a credible election.

“Our findings indicate that BASIEC has fulfilled its pledge to conduct a free, fair, and transparent election,” the chairman said.
He urged the electorate to come out en masse and exercise their right to vote for the party of their choice.
“We also remind the public that freedom of expression should not be used to incite or mislead others, and any grievances should not be construed as a threat to the electoral process,” Isa said
According to him, the public should disregard allegations aimed at jeopardising the electoral process, and IPAC’s officials are vigilant and will resist any attempts to compromise the election.
