  "summary": "A new survey by Yiaga Africa reveals that 84% of Nigerians are willing to participate in the 2027 general elections, but concerns over insecurity, trust in electoral institutions, and the credibility of dispute resolution could hinder actual turnout. Only 47% of respondents expressed a high likelihood of voting, with 61% citing fear of violence as a deterrent. The Independent National Electoral Commission's credibility has also declined, with only 34% expressing confidence in its processes. The survey underscores the importance of addressing these issues to ensure a robust electoral process and increase voter turnout.",
