Former Rivers State governor Rotimi Amaechi has joined ongoing protests demanding the real-time transmission of election results in Nigeria. This move comes as Nigerian youths gathered in Abuja for the “Occupy National Assembly” demonstration, expressing their frustrations over the Senate’s recent rejection of electronic transmission for election results.
Amaechi’s participation adds to the growing momentum behind the protest, which also saw former Labour Party presidential candidate Peter Obi lending his voice to the cause. The demonstrators are advocating for transparency and integrity in Nigeria’s electoral process.
Further details on the protest and its developments will be provided as the situation evolves.
