The African Democratic Congress (ADC) has rejected the Independent National Electoral Commission's (INEC) warning against releasing privately collated election results, asserting that Nigerians have a constitutional right to gather, compile, and share polling-unit results during the 2027 general elections. The ADC's National Publicity Secretary, Bolaji Abdullahi, stated in a Thursday statement that the party will deploy agents and structures to document, collate, and disseminate verified results to the public, emphasizing that this is not a replacement for INEC's official declaration.
The party argued that INEC's mandate does not prevent political parties, candidates, or citizens from independently collecting and sharing election information, reaffirming their commitment to transparency and the constitutional rights of citizens and political parties.
