The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has removed polling units near politicians' homes.

An INEC National Commissioner, Festus Okoye, stated this while featuring on Channels Television programme, Sunday Politics.

Okoye said polling units have been removed from shrines, churches, mosques, and homes of powerful politicians to ensure electoral integrity.

He tasked voters to support the commission’s efforts through shared responsibility and mandate protection to ensure free and fair elections in 2023.

“We removed polling units from the palaces of traditional rulers, we removed polling units that are near the homes of politicians, we removed polling units that are in shrines, we also removed polling units from places we consider not conducive for electoral business,” he said.
