\n
Ahead of the October 5, 2024, Local Governments Elections in Jigawa State, the State Independent Electoral Commission, has Inaugurated a 13-man Elections Malpractices Tribunal.<\/p>\n
The Commission said creating the Tribunal is to clearly spell out its readiness to conduct a free and fair election.<\/p>\n
A statement signed by the Commission\u2019s Public Relations Officer, Mallam Habibu Yusuf, said the Tribunal would be an impartial umpire that would diligently work to safeguard the interests of those who feel duped during the LG elections.<\/p>\n
The statement added that the State Chief Judge, Justice Umar Mai Gari, administered the oath on the tribunal judges under the leadership of Justice Musa Ubale.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe Tribunal Judges are men of proven integrity and are well known in their judicial conducts, therefore they are to receive complaints from those who feel that the election is rigged, or they face harassment.\u201d<\/p>\n
He added that the inauguration, Monday, was attended by the state\u2019s Attorney General Bello Abdulkadir Fanini, the Chairman of the Commission, Auwalu Harbo and the entire Commissioners of INEC.<\/p>\n
