In its report, signed by Bolatumi Animashaun, NBA-EWG team lead, and Mobolaji Ojibara, general secretary, the NBA noted that President Afam Osigwe deployed observers from five branches in Edo State to monitor the election. The NBA-EWG highlighted the professionalism of security personnel and the resilience of voters who braved inclement weather to exercise their civic rights.
“The turnout of physically challenged voters was particularly commendable, as they were prioritized at polling stations to ensure ease of voting,” the report noted.
However, the NBA expressed concerns over low voter turnout, vote buying, and logistical challenges, urging INEC to improve the timely distribution of election materials and to strengthen measures to prevent political parties from influencing voters through monetary incentives.
The NBA also emphasized the need for voter education campaigns to restore public trust in the electoral process, with a focus on encouraging greater participation, especially among women and youth.
