The Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), Mahmood Yakubu, has inaugurated a nine-member ‘Election Monitoring and Support Centre Committee’, as part of preparations towards the 2019 General Elections.

While addressing the committee members in his office on Wednesday, he noted that with 68 political parties and 1,558 constituencies at the moment, the task of organising a general election in Nigeria “is really a very big task.”

The commission had inaugurated a sixteen member Election Project Plan (EPPC) Committee to implement the commission’s 2017-2021 Strategic Plan of action.

“As a commission, we have to track the activities in the EPP (Election Project Plan) and we are going to rely on this committee. In other words, you are the secretariat for the implementation of the EPP.

“Let me on behalf of the commission congratulate you. This is really a big task and I appreciate your acceptance to serve as members of this committee.”

The committee is expected to conclude its assignment within four weeks.
