INEC Denounces ‘Misleading’ Report, Clarifies Official Repost

INEC Denounces ‘Misleading’ Report, Clarifies Official Repost

The Independent National Electoral Commission has rejected claims that its recent press statement was copied from a third party. It insists the statement was created and published solely by the Commission. INEC said any sharing of the statement outside its official channels occurred without its approval. It also described a recent Peoples Gazette report as misleading and a misrepresentation of facts. The Commission explained that reposting the statement was meant only to amplify accurate information it had already released. INEC emphasized that this action did not signal endorsement of any individual or political figure. INEC reaffirmed its commitment to neutrality, transparency, and credible information dissemination as central to its mandate.

I'm not convinced we should trust INEC's word alone when similar gaffes happened before without clear accountability.

Journalists and citizens alike should verify press releases on official INEC channels before sharing or reacting publicly.
