There’s Improvement in Anambra Election, No Glitch recorded – Moghalu

Labour Party governorship candidate in Anambra State, Dr. George Moghalu, has lamented low voter turnout.

Speaking to journalists after casting his ballot at Uruagu Ward 1 in Nnewi, Moghalu attributed alleged apathy to a lack of public confidence in the electoral process.

He called on the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to ensure transparency and credibility throughout the election.

However, Moghalu noted that it was still too early to determine whether the process was entirely fair.

He said: “I didn’t hear issues of glitches, at least for now. As we go along to monitor the process, we’ll confirm.

“In terms of voting, there’s improvement as against previous elections. I can’t say it’s free and fair because if you monitise a process, you weaponise poverty. What’s free about it?

“There’s no doubt there’s low voter turnout. And that’s has been the trend.

“It’s incumbent on INEC to keep improving on the process because voter apathy is the main issue.”
