Group Urges Nigerians To Support INEC Chairman, Commends Tinubu

A political advocacy group, G37 Political Support Group, has called on Nigerians to rally behind the Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC),Professor Joash Amupitan urging the public to avoid what it described as unnecessary distractions that could undermine the electoral body’s work.

The National Coordinator of the group, Prince Evans City, made the appeal while speaking with journalists in Abuja on Sunday .

He stressed the importance of public confidence in INEC, noting that the commission plays a critical role in safeguarding Nigeria’s democracy through the conduct of free, fair, and credible elections.

According to him, constant criticism and unverified claims against the INEC Chairman could erode trust in the institution and distract it from its constitutional responsibilities.

“We urge Nigerians to remain focused and support the leadership of INEC rather than engage in actions that may create unnecessary tension or distractions,” he said.

Prince City also commended Bola Ahmed Tinubu for providing what he described as an enabling environment for all political parties to operate and thrive without hindrance.

He noted that such an atmosphere is essential for deepening democratic values and ensuring inclusiveness in the nation’s political space.

The group further called on political actors and stakeholders to act responsibly and channel grievances through lawful and appropriate means, emphasizing that a stable electoral system is vital for national development.
