The Inter-Party Advisory Council (IPAC) has urged the Federal Government (FG) not to delay the release of funds to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) ahead of the 2027 general elections. National Chairman Yusuf Dantalle made this demand during an interview on Arise Television’s Prime Time. According to Dantalle, the 2027 elections are only 100 days away and political parties are stepping up their campaign efforts.
INEC, as reported by DAILY POST, has begun providing non-sensitive materials to some states. However, the commission's national chairman, Professor Joash Amupitan, has previously criticized INEC's lack of appropriate funding. Dantalle emphasized that timely release of election funds is crucial for INEC to prepare effectively. He highlighted that certain materials required for credible elections are not provided by the government, and rushed production of equipment could lead to disastrous outcomes.
