The erstwhile Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), Prof. Attahiru Jega has expressed over the current political developments in the country.
He said the outcome of 2023 general election may be contentious.
Speaking at a colloquium organised by the Electoral Hub in Abuja on Wednesday, the former ONEC boss however, expressed optimism that the country will come out of it.
“I have a lot of fears about the outcome of the election. But you will see people like me are what I’ll call an incurable optimist about the future of our country.
“So I remain hopeful that in spite of the recklessness that we see, the vandalism that we see perpetrated by many of our so-called leading politicians, we are hopeful that people will mobilise and become effectively engaged in the electoral process, so that we have a good outcome in 2023,” Jega said.
