Kano Guber Poll: We’re Not Party To Review Calls – CISLAC, TMG 

The Transition Monitoring Group (TMG) and the Civil Society Legislative Advocacy Centre (CISLAC) have denied calling for the cancellation of the gubernatorial election in Kano.
A coalition of domestic election observers had asked the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to review the governorship election in Kano state over “irregularities”.
In a statement, yesterday, CISLAC and TMG said they were not party to the demand.
The CSOs said they will never interfere with the conduct of elections.
“We assure the public that we have never at any time issued such statements nor been a party to such conclusions. We strongly believe in democratic approaches to settling elections disputes and encourage all who are not satisfied with the process to seek redress in the court of law,” the statement read.
“We warn sternly against the illegal use of our names to spin narratives that are capable of further heating up the polity and creating chaos in Kano state and in Nigeria. Any further misuse of our names in this direction will be met by litigation”, they warned.
The CSOs added that “we stand by our earlier recommendations on the part of INEC and other stakeholders to improve the elections in Nigeria”.
