The Traditional ruler of Umueri, Igwe Bennett Emeka has called on the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, to ensure that this Saturday’s Presidential and National Assembly election is free, fair and credible.
Igwe Emeka who disclosed this while speaking to the ABS in Awka, said that the 2023 general elections will be a litmus test for INEC to prove their preparedness, impartiality and incorruptible nature.
