Former APC Deputy National Publicity Secretary, Timi Frank
Former Deputy National Publicity Secretary of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Comrade Timi Frank, has said Nigerians would not accept a flawed election in 2027.
Frank, in a statement, on Friday, expressed concern over allegations of Artificial Intelligence (AI)-generated photographs in the voter register displayed online by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) .
Former APC deputy spokesman urged INEC to verify questionable entries in the voter register, establish the facts and transparently explain how the register was compiled.
According to him, “this discovery of INEC using AI-generated voters’ register is a clear indication of a rigging plot. President Tinubu and INEC should understand that any attempt to rig the 2027 election will have serious consequences.”
Furthermore, Frank accused INEC of allegedly failing to comply with Section 19(1) of the Electoral Act 2026, requiring it to publish the voter register not later than 90 days before the general election. He charged the commission to clarify its compliance with the law and take all necessary steps to guarantee the credibility of the register.
According to him, INEC must demonstrate its independence, address legitimate concerns about the voter register and ensure that every eligible Nigerian’s vote counts.
Also, Frank urged the United States, the United Kingdom, the European Union and other international partners to engage the Nigerian government and INEC well ahead of the election to help safeguard a free, fair and credible process. (The Sun)
