In this piece, Group Politics Editor, KUNLE ODEREMI, writes on the activities of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) in the outgone year vis-à-vis the challenges ahead of the commission in 2020 and beyond. With the dust arising from the last general election over, the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) appears to be fast settling down for off season polls in 2020, including bye-elections. The 2019 EPP is the second since 2015 and was designed to ensure the implementation of the 2019 general election as a single coordinated plan to deepen the voter experience and deliver better services. Only 42 domestic observer groups have so far submitted reports on the 2019 general elections. Recall that elections were held in 1,558 constituencies nationwide in the 2019 general election.
