NADECO alleges the election results pronounced by the Independent National Electoral Commission ("INEC"),  February 25-26, 2023, are fundamentally at odds with Nigerian election laws and constitute wholesale disenfranchisement of Nigerian voters caused by the pervasive rot of Nigeria's increasingly kleptocratic political structure.

Key Points: 
  • NADECO alleges the election results pronounced by the Independent National Electoral Commission ("INEC"),  February 25-26, 2023, are fundamentally at odds with Nigerian election laws and constitute wholesale disenfranchisement of Nigerian voters caused by the pervasive rot of Nigeria's increasingly kleptocratic political structure.
  • NADECO demands that INEC draw back its curtains to let the full light of truth prove the transparency and veracity of the 2023 electoral processes.
  • It is beyond debate that initial investigation into the 2023 Nigerian Presidential Elections inexorably discloses that Nigeria's most recent election is the polar opposite of transparency, fairness and  electoral integrity.
  • NADECO maintains that the 2023 Nigerian Presidential Election is an attempt to disenfranchise the Nigerian people through the Four Horsemen of the Democracy's Doom - bribery, intimidation, insecurity and vote rigging, all harnessed to skew the results of the 2023 Nigerian Presidential Election.
