Nigerians in the United Kingdom have staged a protest at the United Kingdom Parliament, demanding the sack of the Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, Prof. Joash Amupitan.
The protesters also demanded credible and transparent elections ahead of 2027 polls.
The protesters made up of members of the Nigerians in Diaspora community, voiced concerns over the Nigeria electoral system.
One of the protesters said, “If we must save our democracy, we need to save it today. We must enjoy a better country tomorrow, and it starts now. It starts by asking Amupitan to resign from that office.
“We don’t want him to bury it. That’s why we are here to speak out. We need to give maximum support. All we are fighting for is a free and fair election.”
Members of the African Democratic Congress youths have also mobilised for protests across Nigeria.
Demonstrations are scheduled to take place at INEC offices in Lagos, Ogun, and Jigawa States, with participants demanding the sack of the INEC chairman.
