Mr. Olusegun Agbaje will not be removed as the REC for Lagos over unfounded allegations. He will not only conduct the presidential\/national assembly election scheduled for 25th February 2023, he will also superintend over the governorship\/state House of Assembly election holding on 11th March.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe is a conscientious, honest, dependable, and hardworking Resident Electoral Commissioner. His integrity speaks for him in all the places where he had served,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>According to him, during the recent Continuous Voter Registration (CVR) that took place between June 2021 and July 2022, Lagos State under Agbaje registered the highest number of voters in the country being 585,629.<\/p>\n<p>Oyekanmi said, \u201cOn 27th January this year, we announced that out of the 940,200 PVCs delivered to Lagos State as of that date, 839,720 PVCs representing 89.3 percent had been collected. This debunks the allegation that the Lagos REC deliberately withheld the PVCs belonging to persons from a particular region of the country.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs for the movement of election materials in Lagos State, the commission is engaging individual vehicle owners. Unions don\u2019t have vehicles and even if they have some, they cannot possibly provide the number of vehicles that the commission requires to conduct the general election.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRather, the unions are made up of individuals that own vehicles. You then have to negotiate with the vehicle owners and join the unions as witnesses and for accountability purposes. We have been conducting elections in Lagos and we have been using these individuals\u2019 that own vehicles that meet our specification.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He assured Lagosians and voters who intend to vote in Lagos that their votes will count as the commission has not candidate in Lagos State or anywhere in the country for the elections.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has explained why it will not redeploy the Resident Electoral Commissioner (REC) for Lagos State, Mr. Segun Agbaje.
