  • The former deputy governor’s comments come at a critical juncture in Nigeria’s political landscape.
  • The introduction of electronic transmission and collation of election results has been hailed as a potential game-changer in Nigeria’s electoral process.

Kingsley Moghalu, a former deputy governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, has issued a stark warning that Nigeria’s democracy is on a perilous path.

He asserts that the country’s democratic system will inevitably collapse unless the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) is freed from external influences and allowed to operate independently, and unless electronic transmission and collation of election results become mandatory.

Moghalu is sounding the alarm that Nigeria’s democratic future hangs in the balance, and urgent action is needed to prevent a catastrophe.

The former Deputy Governor made this known in a post on his X handle on Saturday, stressing that elections will simply remain a charade and a path to state capture unless INEC becomes independent.

He said: “Democracy in Nigeria has a bleak future if @inecnigeria is not truly independent, and if electronic transmission and collation of election results is not made MANDATORY. Else, elections simply remain a charade – a path to state capture by whichever political parties are able to.”
