NCP Urges Oshiomhole To Reconstitute EDSIEC
Edo chapter of the National Conscience Party (NCP), has urged Gov. Adams Oshiomhole to reconstitute the State Independent Electoral Commission (EDSIEC).
The party noted that the Commission, constituted by the previous administration, did not conduct credible election that ushered in the present council chairmen and councillors.
The party’s position was contained in a statement signed by its chairman, Mr Igbotako Nowinta, on Thursday in Benin.
NCP urged the governor to look into the relevant provisions and initiate moves to reconstitute the Commission.
“ If this is carried out before the 2011 election, it will go a long way in encouraging political parties to participate in the elections.’’
NCP also said a new commission would complement the one-man one-vote campaign of Gov. Oshiomhole.
