Protesters on Tuesday returned to the National Assembly Complex for the second consecutive day, intensifying calls for real-time transmission of election results from polling units to the Independent National Electoral Commission’s IREV portal.
Protesters were heard chanting, “We no go gree, we no go gree, Akpabio, pass the bill,” as demonstrators gathered at the entrance of the National Assembly Complex in Abuja.
Some protesters were also heard chanting “Our vote must count.”
The demonstrators also carried placards bearing strong messages, including “Don’t alter the bill, pass it,” and “Rigging election is a coup,” alongside other inscriptions.
The chants were directed at Senate President Godswill Akpabio, as demonstrators urged the leadership of the National Assembly to prioritise the bill.
