2019 polls: FG ready to introduce new electoral laws – Malami
Ahead of the 2019 general election, the federal government has expressed its resolve to implement recommendations of the Senator Ken Nnamani-led Constitution and Electoral Reform Committee whenever the report is released and the reform passed into law by the National Assembly.
The Attorney General of the Federation and Minister of Justice, Mr. Abubakar Malami, SAN, in a statement on Sunday, said FG was in full support of the committee and would ensure that whatever is contained in the new Electoral Act is implemented to the latter so as to guarantee the development of the nation.
According to the statement which was signed by Special Adviser to the AGF on Media and Publicity, Mr. Salihu Isah, Malami, made the pledge in his address at the North Central zone public hearing of the constitution and electoral reform held in Jos, Plateau State.
Malami said, “It is my honour and privilege to address this August occasion as the nation once again attempts to re-jig its constitution and electoral reforms.
“I am sure you will all agree that life is about constant change and that nothing in life is perfect. So is our electoral system.
“It is to this end that the present Administration of President Muhammadu Buhari decided to constitute and indeed inaugurate the Constitution and Electoral Reform Committee on October 4, 2016.
“Let me restate that the Federal Government inaugurated the Committee in fulfilment of Mr. President’s pledge to leave a lasting legacy in the area of electoral reform. The relevance of this exercise cannot be over-emphasised.
“Elections are what democracy entails and democracy as we commonly know is a sure and sustainable way of ensuring development. The Federal Ministry of Justice is therefore in full support of this exercise”.
