Kenneth Udeze, the National Chairman of Action Alliance, has urged INEC Chairman Joash Amupitan to investigate and dismiss any employees responsible for using artificial intelligence (AI) to create duplicate National Identification Numbers (NIN) in the voters' register.

The AA Chairman emphasized the need for an open, third-party forensic audit of the register, a verifiable cleanup and deduplication audit trail, identification, investigation, and dismissal of any staff members involved in register contamination, and a thorough internal cleanup before the 2027 elections.
