UTOMI TELLS INEC TO EXTEND VOTER REGISTRATION UNTIL OCTOBER

Meanwhile, the leader of the National Consultative Front and Convener of the Big Tent, Professor Pat Utomi, says the suspension of voter registration could lead to the disenfranchisement of many Nigerians.

He urged the Independent Electoral Commission (INEC) to resume voter registration until the end of October at least.

Professor Utomi made the comments while speaking at a World Press Conference in Lagos.

Professor Utomi also asked INEC to make it mandatory for contestants to participate in open debates.
