SERAP Demands INEC Account for Missing N55.9bn Election Funds, Threatens Legal Action
SERAP has asked INEC Chairman Prof. Joash Amupitan to immediately explain the reported disappearance or diversion of N55.9 billion meant for procuring smart card readers, ballot papers, and other materials for the 2019 elections. The demand follows revelations in the Auditor-General’s 2022 report, which detailed irregular payments, lack of documentation, inflated contracts, and possible diversion of funds. SERAP insists on full disclosure of the contractors involved, refund of missing money, and prosecution of all implicated persons, warning it will take legal action if INEC fails to act within seven days.
