The Senate Leader, Opeyemi Bamidele, has stated that the proposed Electoral Act will be shaped by consensus among key stakeholders, emphasising inclusivity in the reform process. The Electoral Act is the legal framework that governs elections in Nigeria.
Bamidele noted that consultations are ongoing with political parties, civil society organisations and electoral bodies to address gaps in the current system.
He explained that the goal is to produce legislation that enhances transparency, credibility and efficiency in elections.
Observers point out that electoral reforms remain central to strengthening Nigeria’s democratic institutions.
Stakeholders have welcomed the consultative approach, describing it as necessary for building trust in the electoral process.
Experts highlight that consensus driven legislation is more likely to gain acceptance and ensure smoother implementation.
The development underscores ongoing efforts to improve governance and electoral integrity.
Analysts believe that the outcome of the reform process will have significant implications for future elections.
