collaboration with the National Identity Management Commission NIMC to eliminate duplicate voter records and strengthen data verification ahead of future elections.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Chairman of INEC, Prof. Joash Amupitan, SAN, disclosed this while receiving the Director-General and Chief Executive Officer of NIMC, Engr. Abisoye Coker-Odusote, and her management team during a courtesy visit to the INEC headquarters in Abuja.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Prof. Amupitan reaffirmed the Commission’s commitment to strengthening collaboration with NIMC following the signing of the National Identity Management Commission Act, 2026, describing it as a major step towards building a more secure and transparent electoral system.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>He said the Commission sees enormous opportunities for collaboration with NIMC, particularly in voter registration, data verification and the elimination of duplicate records. \u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>He disclosed that INEC’s newly introduced online Continuous Voter Registration CVR platform already requires applicants to use their National Identification Number NIN for identity verification, adding that closer integration between both agencies would further simplify voter registration while enhancing the credibility of the electoral process.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>“As we move from the era of technology into the era of artificial intelligence, it is imperative that we work together to establish the necessary safeguards and protocols to ensure the integrity, security and credibility of our data systems,” Prof. Amupitan said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Speaking during the meeting, Engr. Coker-Odusote said the newly enacted NIMC Act, signed into law by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, on June 26, 2026, marks a historic transformation of the Commission after nearly two decades of reforms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>According to her, the new law elevates NIMC from being merely a custodian of Nigeria’s identity database to the nation’s foundational digital identity authority, making it the home of Nigeria’s Digital Public Infrastructure DPI and Root Public Key Infrastructure PKI, which provides the digital trust framework for secure transactions and governance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>She noted that the reforms would strengthen Nigeria’s digital economy, reduce fraud, simplify access to public and private services, and enhance electoral integrity through stronger identity verification systems.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>“NIMC is ready to support INEC in delivering free, fair and transparent elections because identity remains the foundation of effective governance and credible electoral processes,” she said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Director of Strategy and Programme Office at NIMC, Dr. Alba Nkoku, who presented highlights of the new Act, explained that the legislation repositions the Commission from a traditional identity registration agency to Nigeria’s national digital trust anchor. He said the Act establishes the legal framework for digital public infrastructure, strengthens Nigeria’s digital sovereignty, promotes secure digital transactions and introduces digital identity credentials beyond the conventional identity card system.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Responding, Prof. Amupitan described the new law as a landmark achievement that expands NIMC’s role beyond identity registration into a sovereign digital authority capable of transforming governance, commerce, land administration and other critical sectors.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>He commended Engr. Coker-Odusote for the remarkable progress recorded under her leadership, noting that NIMC has become a key driver of Nigeria’s digital transformation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Amupitan expressed optimism that the partnership between INEC and NIMC would strengthen Nigeria’s digital governance architecture and further enhance public confidence in future elections.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The post \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.vanguardngr.com\u002F2026\u002F07\u002F2027-inec-nimc-move-to-eliminate-duplicate-voter-records\u002F\">2027: INEC, NIMC move to eliminate duplicate voter records\u003C\u002Fa> appeared first on \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.vanguardngr.com\">Vanguard News\u003C\u002Fa>.\u003C\u002Fp>\n","2027-inec-nimc-move-to-eliminate-duplicate-voter-records",{"id":60,"createdAt":61,"updatedAt":62,"name":63,"slug":64},[70,64,1695,1696,1697,1698,1699,1700],"nimc","move","eliminate","duplicate","voter","records","https:\u002F\u002Fcdn.vanguardngr.com\u002Fwp-content\u002Fuploads\u002F2026\u002F07\u002Finecam-1024x580.jpeg",{"id":1703,"createdAt":1704,"updatedAt":1705,"name":1706,"image":1707,"slug":1708},"ba5aa7e2-df4c-43a8-ac43-57e16ebb83a0","2026-03-25T11:54:25.227Z","2026-05-14T10:06:39.000Z","Vanguard Nigeria","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.oneclickafrica.com\u002Fmedia\u002Ffeed\u002F5e53f632-5a90-44f5-83e1-eac7059f14f0.webp","vanguard-nigeria",9,3,"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.vanguardngr.com\u002F2026\u002F07\u002F2027-inec-nimc-move-to-eliminate-duplicate-voter-records\u002F",{"id":1713,"createdAt":1714,"updatedAt":1715,"title":1716,"excerpt":1717,"content":1718,"slug":1719,"topic":1720,"tags":1721,"image":1729,"author":73,"feed":1730,"views":1731,"type":82,"readTime":83,"externalSourceUrl":1732},"d22685a1-155f-423e-bc0e-05eafc45fab7","2026-07-16T14:35:00.488Z","2026-07-16T18:02:45.000Z","BREAKING: A’Court sets aside judgment nullifying INEC guidelines","The Court of Appeal has set aside a Federal High Court judgment that nullified parts of INEC guidelines for the 2027 general elections.\n\nRead More: https:\u002F\u002Fpunchng.com\u002Fbreaking-acourt-sets-aside-judgment-nullifying-inec-guidelines\u002F","\n\nThe Court of Appeal has set aside a Federal High Court judgment that nullified parts of INEC guidelines for the 2027 general elections.\n\nRead More: https:\u002F\u002Fpunchng.com\u002Fbreaking-acourt-sets-aside-judgment-nullifying-inec-guidelines\u002F","breaking-acourt-sets-aside-judgment-nullifying-inec-guidelines",{"id":60,"createdAt":61,"updatedAt":62,"name":63,"slug":64},[1722,1723,1724,1725,1726,1727,64,1728],"breaking","acourt","sets","aside","judgment","nullifying","guidelines","https:\u002F\u002Fpunchng.com\u002Fwp-content\u002Fuploads\u002F2026\u002F06\u002FINEC.webp",{"id":75,"createdAt":76,"updatedAt":77,"name":78,"image":79,"slug":80},7,"https:\u002F\u002Fpunchng.com\u002Fbreaking-acourt-sets-aside-judgment-nullifying-inec-guidelines\u002F?utm_source=rss.punchng.com&utm_medium=web",{"id":1734,"createdAt":1735,"updatedAt":1736,"title":1737,"excerpt":1738,"content":1739,"slug":1740,"topic":1741,"tags":1742,"image":1750,"author":73,"feed":1751,"views":1758,"type":82,"readTime":81,"externalSourceUrl":1759},"2eab2adc-73f2-4f5f-b25f-d78b9c11ca81","2026-07-16T06:04:00.277Z","2026-07-16T19:23:48.000Z","2027: We’re being called names for supporting Obi-Kwankwaso ticket – Buba Galadima","A chieftain of the Nigeria Democratic Congress, NDC, Buba Galadima, has defended calls for a political alliance between the North and the South-East ahead of the 2027 general election.

It only becomes meaningful when it improves the lives of citizens,” he stated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>The don recalled a nationwide survey conducted ahead of the 2015 general election, saying that he was part of a research team commissioned by then vice-president-elect, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo, to identify Nigerians’ expectations of the incoming administration.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>He said the survey identified security as the country’s foremost concern, followed by the economy, corruption, infrastructure and education.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Pate who is also a Professor of Communication at Bayero University, Kano, noted that while successive administrations have made efforts in these areas, Nigerians continue to assess democracy largely by improvements in their daily lives.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>He cited findings from the Afrobarometer survey across 39 African countries, which showed that while about two-thirds of Africans prefer democracy to other forms of government, only about 37 per cent were satisfied with how democracy worked in their respective countries.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>According to him, “This reflects a gap between citizens’ commitment to democratic ideals and the actual outcomes of democratic governance.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>The communication scholar also referenced findings from the 2024 African Young People Survey, which revealed that many young Africans are considering emigrating due to corruption and limited opportunities, warning that such sentiments pose serious questions about the future of democracy on the continent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Pate identified historical grievances, identity politics, social and economic exclusion, youth unemployment, weak institutions and governance deficits as major factors undermining democratic consolidation in Nigeria.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>He argued that: “Identity politics has continued to shape political participation, often placing greater emphasis on ethnicity, religion and place of origin than on competence and shared national values.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>He also expressed concern over the collapse of local government institutions in many parts of the country, saying that grassroots governance had previously played a significant role in resolving community disputes, providing basic services and creating economic opportunities.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>The professor warned that: “Misinformation, hate speech and divisive narratives amplified through digital platforms are worsening existing social tensions. Nigeria’s challenge is no longer the absence of information but the abundance of false information and the scarcity of public attention.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>He further linked insecurity to rising poverty, hunger, unemployment, environmental challenges and weak governance, arguing that conflicts discourage investment, reduce agricultural productivity and deepen economic hardship.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Maintaining that security remains Nigerians’ greatest expectation of government, Pate noted that the country continues to grapple with insurgency, banditry, kidnapping, communal conflicts, separatist agitations and urban crime.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>He called for stronger institutions, inclusive governance and policies that address the root causes of insecurity and inequality, insisting that democracy would only endure if it delivers peace, opportunity and improved living conditions for all Nigerians.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>In his remarks, the Consul General of the Kingdom of the Netherlands in Lagos, Michael Deleen, expressed concern over the rising level of poverty in Nigeria, attributing it largely to challenges in the country’s education system and democratic governance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>He said education remains critical to empowering citizens, adding that informed and educated people are better equipped to make decisions based on knowledge rather than circumstance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>He therefore urged the government to prioritise addressing the nation’s education and governance challenges, noting that doing so would help reduce poverty and promote sustainable development.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>The event featured a review and unveiling of the 2025 civic space status report and panel discussions examining how sophisticated surveillance technologies, institutionalised harassment and shrinking press freedoms are threatening journalists’ safety and the public’s right to information. \u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>The sessions also explored democracy beyond periodic elections, emphasising the need to assess it through good governance, accountability, responsiveness and public trust in institutions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n","wole-soyinka-92-varsity-don-calls-for-democracy-that-delivers-security-economic-prosperity",{"id":1264,"createdAt":1265,"updatedAt":1265,"name":1266,"slug":1267},[1869,1870,1871,1872,1873,1267,1874,1875,1876,1877],"wole","soyinka","varsity","don","calls","delivers","security","economic","prosperity","https:\u002F\u002Fglobal.ariseplay.com\u002Famg\u002Fwww.thisdaylive.com\u002Fuploads\u002F1000993148.jpg",{"id":1880,"createdAt":1881,"updatedAt":1882,"name":1883,"image":1884,"slug":1885},"676b27a5-8a43-458d-91ba-45c07367106b","2026-03-26T09:35:16.600Z","2026-04-20T09:31:29.000Z","This

It was titled, “Review of the Internal Procurement Process of the National Assembly.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>The President of the Senate insisted that greater transparency in the legislature’s budgeting and financial management must come before any procurement reforms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Akpabio said, “Personally, I have not seen the budget of the National Assembly. Senator Tambuwal, you were a Speaker, I don’t know, maybe in the House of Representatives, they showed you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Also speaking on the National Assembly’s budget, Senator Adamu Aliero, APC, Kebbi Central, lamented that lawmakers themselves were often unaware of the details of the National Assembly’s budget, saying that the Senate was “putting the cart before the horse,” stressing that the absence of a functional Budget and Research Office remained a more pressing issue.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Aliero said, “Two of the problems that we have in the National Assembly regarding the management of finances and the budget do not solely lie in the process of procurement. The problem has been that the National Assembly has not set up a Budget and Research Office.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>“What is happening today is that we don’t even know and we don’t even see the budget of the National Assembly being presented here so that we can interrogate and understand the lines of expenditure,” he added.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>“My opinion is that the Senator should step down this motion. Let us get the house right first before we talk about the issues that the Distinguished Senator Karimi is raising.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Earlier, the Senate stepped down the motion by Senator Karimi to establish an Internal Tender Board for the National Assembly, as lawmakers stressed that greater transparency in the legislature’s budgeting and financial management must come before any procurement reforms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>The motion was eventually withdrawn after it drew criticism from lawmakers who described it as premature and lacking adequate internal consultation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Moving the motion, Karimi argued that the proposal was aimed at strengthening the institutional capacity of the National Assembly and safeguarding its financial independence as guaranteed by the Constitution.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>He cited Section 81(3) of the 1999 Constitution (as amended), which provides for the funding of the National Assembly through a first-line charge on the Consolidated Revenue Fund of the Federation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>“The Senate notes that Section 81(3) of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria 1999 as amended guarantees the independence of the National Assembly and provides for the funding of the National Assembly through the first-line charge on the Consolidated Revenue Fund of the Federation,” Karimi said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>He also relied on Section 51 of the Constitution, which empowers each chamber of the National Assembly to regulate its own procedure and internal administration.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>“In furtherance of the constitutional principle of separation of powers and parliamentary autonomy, the Senate resolves that it is necessary to strengthen the institutional capacity of the National Assembly to manage its financial and procurement processes efficiently, transparently and in a manner consistent with its status as an independent arm of government,” he stated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Karimi urged the Senate to affirm parliamentary autonomy, establish an Internal Tender Board to evaluate and approve procurement matters within approved budgetary provisions, and mandate the Clerk to the National Assembly (CNA) to constitute the board.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>However, the proposal immediately met resistance from fellow senators, who argued that the legislature should first address longstanding concerns about budget transparency.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Akpabio also criticised both the timing and procedure adopted by the sponsor, saying such a proposal should have been discussed with the Senate leadership and the Clerk to the National Assembly before reaching the floor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>He said, “Senator Karimi, you should have discussed this even with me in the presence of the Clerk to the National Assembly and the principal officers of management so that I get clearance on what you are coming up with.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>The President of the Senate, who questioned the wisdom of publicly debating the establishment of an Internal Tender Board before resolving internal concerns about the management of the legislature’s finances, said, “We should start with ourselves. We should get the two chambers to know exactly what is going on.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>“We should also debate and understand the budget. We should know how much is coming, what is going to where. This motion is premature,” he said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Akpabio subsequently advised Karimi to withdraw the motion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Before doing so, Karimi, who sought clarification on whether the Clerk to the National Assembly had discussed the proposal with the Senate President, said, “Mister President, while I am withdrawing the motion, did the CNA discuss this motion with you?” Karimi asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Akpabio replied: “No, no. This is not correct. If it was discussed with me, I would not be opposed. I am not opposed to the motion, but I am opposed to the content of the prayers.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>Karimi thereafter withdrew the motion, saying, “Okay, I am withdrawing the motion.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>The Senate President then ruled: “Motion withdrawn.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\n\n\n\u003Cp>The development means the proposed Internal Tender Board will not be established for now, as the Senate leadership indicated that lawmakers would first be briefed on the National Assembly’s budget and financial management before any fresh proposal on procurement reforms is considered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The post \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.vanguardngr.com\u002F2026\u002F07\u002Five-never-seen-national-assembly-budget-akpabio\u002F\">I’ve never seen National Assembly budget – Akpabio\u003C\u002Fa> appeared first on \u003Ca href=\"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.vanguardngr.com\">Vanguard News\u003C\u002Fa>.\u003C\u002Fp>\n","ive-never-seen-national-assembly-budget-akpabio",{"id":1208,"createdAt":1209,"updatedAt":1210,"name":1211,"slug":1212},[1977,1978,1979,1980,1981,1807,1982],"ive","never","seen","national","assembly","akpabio","https:\u002F\u002Fcdn.vanguardngr.com\u002Fwp-content\u002Fuploads\u002F2025\u002F02\u002FGODSWILL-AKPABIO.jpg",{"id":1703,"createdAt":1704,"updatedAt":1705,"name":1706,"image":1707,"slug":1708},"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.vanguardngr.com\u002F2026\u002F07\u002Five-never-seen-national-assembly-budget-akpabio\u002F",{"id":1987,"createdAt":1988,"updatedAt":1989,"title":1990,"excerpt":1991,"content":1991,"slug":1992,"topic":1993,"tags":1994,"image":2001,"author":73,"feed":2002,"views":1710,"type":82,"readTime":83,"externalSourceUrl":2003},"38832ddc-bb81-4bb1-872b-dc5cab0bc79e","2026-07-16T18:37:00.708Z","2026-07-16T20:54:42.000Z","National House of Chiefs mourns demise of Ya-Naa Abukari II","The National House of Chiefs has extended its deepest condolences to the Dagbon Traditional Council following the death of His Royal Majesty Ya-Naa Mahama Abukari II, King and Overlord of the Dagbon Kingdom.","national-house-of-chiefs-mourns-demise-of-ya-naa-abukari-ii",{"id":1202,"createdAt":1203,"updatedAt":1203,"name":1204,"slug":1205},[1980,1995,1996,1997,1998,1999,2000],"house","chiefs","mourns","demise","yanaa","abukari","https:\u002F\u002Fcdn.modernghana.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcontent\u002F716202664147-osjum8x432-ya-na-abukari-mahama-ii.jpg",{"id":1833,"createdAt":1834,"updatedAt":1835,"name":1836,"image":1837,"slug":1838},"https:\u002F\u002Fwww.modernghana.com\u002Fnews\u002F1511305\u002Fnational-house-of-chiefs-mourns-demise-of-ya-naaa.html",{"topic":2005,"posts":2006},{"id":1195,"createdAt":1196,"updatedAt":1197,"name":1198,"slug":1199},[2007,2031,2053,2073],{"id":2008,"createdAt":2009,"updatedAt":2009,"title":2010,"excerpt":2011,"content":2012,"slug":2013,"topic":2014,"tags":2015,"image":2022,"author":73,"feed":2023,"views":1932,"type":82,"readTime":83,"externalSourceUrl":2030},"1bce2053-b3f4-4c19-8a0c-8a65aa33516c","2026-07-16T20:36:00.462Z","Senate rejects motion to review contract award process in National Assembly.","The lawmakers argued that the Senate leadership needed first to address the issues raised and reach a clear position before bringing the matter to public debate.\nThe post Senate rejects motion to review contract award process in National Assembly. appeared first on Premium Times Nigeria.","\u003Cimg width=\"828\" height=\"368\" src=\"https:\u002F\u002Fi0.wp.com\u002Fmedia.premiumtimesng.com\u002Fwp-content\u002Ffiles\u002F2025\u002F10\u002FWhatsApp-Image-2025-10-15-at-08.31.15.jpeg?fit=828%2C368&ssl=1\" class=\"webfeedsFeaturedVisual wp-post-image\" alt=\"Screenshot of Senate at plenary (PHOTO CREDIT: NASSTV National Assembly, Nigeria)\" style=\"display: block;
