On Wednesday, January 15, 2020, the Committee called for calm among the political parties in connection with agitations over the new register. “At the end of the meeting, it was agreed that the EC and the Eminent Advisory Committee will meet with members of the Inter-Party Advisory Committee (IPAC) to have further deliberations on the matter". “Meanwhile, the Eminent Advisory Committee calls for calm from all political parties and other stakeholders as they work in the national interest”, the statement said". Responding to the Committee’s statement, Mr Otokunor told Class91.3FM’s 505 news programme that evening that: “The sad aspect is that what has happened today has shown the gross incompetence of the Electoral Commission”. You needn’t get the Advisory Committee or the eminent people to come and advise you to accept diverse opinion and go for dialogue before you go for dialogue”.
