The Deputy President of the Senate, Senator Ike Ekweremadu, has charged the Constitution and Electoral Reform Committee to help restore the fast declining independence of the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, in order to preserve the nation’s democracy.
He also suggested single term of office to reduce desperation and impunity by politicians as well as the conduct of party primaries by INEC to reduce the life and death struggle by politicians for control of party machinery.
Ekweremadu stated this at the retreat organised by the presidential Committee in Uyo, Akwa Ibom State on Tuesday.
