The Independent National Electoral Commission has assured the Labour Party’s legal team of the Commission’s readiness to provide all documents the party requested to prosecute its case at the Presidential Election Petition Tribunal.
Inec Chairman, Mahmood Yakubu, made the pledge on Monday when he received the team of 60 lawyers led by Livy Uzoukwu.
Addressing the team, Yakubu said the commission would also meet with its Resident Electoral Commissioners RECs in the states to work out modalities for the inspection of materials in the states.
“INEC has nothing to hide. Documents available at the headquarters will be given immediately.
“We are meeting with Resident Electoral Commissioners today and we will discuss how other documents at the state level could also be made available to you speedily”, he stated.
The Labour Party’s Legal Team was at the INEC Headquarters to discuss modalities for obtaining the documents.
