• Congressional Scrutiny: Congressman Moore emphasized that he and his administration are committed to paying “very close attention” to how the electoral process unfolds and is executed.

• Concerns Over Election Viability: Conversely, Bolaji Abdullahi, the National Spokesman for the African Democratic Congress (ADC), has raised doubts about whether the 2027 elections will take place at all.

• Factors Threatening the Election: In an interview with The Sun, Abdullahi identified several primary concerns:

  • INEC Readiness: He fears the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) may not be prepared for the polls, noting that if necessary offshore procurements have not been funded or initiated by now, the election is at risk.

  • Economic Impact: Abdullahi suggested that the hunger resulting from President Bola Tinubu’s administration may discourage citizens from voting and potentially facilitate election rigging.

  • Insecurity: He further warned that prevailing security issues could prevent the election from being held in various parts of the country.

• Apprehension Regarding Malpractice: Additionally, Abdullahi expressed worry that the commission might proceed with a flawed process, essentially instructing aggrieved parties to seek redress in court, with the expectation that political actors will simply move on regardless of the outcome.
