Worries over disinformation, criminal use of AI, vows foolproof security By Omeiza Ajayi ABUJA – The Independent National Electoral Commission INEC on Thursday said it is set to conduct a comprehensive audit of its systems ahead of the 2027 general election in order to forestall a repeat of the technical glitches that trailed the 2023 presidential election.
The Chairman also disclosed that the Commission was considering budgeting for a full audit of its systems and the conduct of a mock presidential election ahead of 2027, though the plan was not originally part of its budget.
On the legal front, the Chairman noted that the Court of Appeal had restored the electoral timetable, disclosing that the Commission had been working to navigate the process even before the restoration, and assuring that despite a compressed financial timeline, INEC would deliver a free, fair, inclusive and credible election.
