Nigerian activist, Deji Adeyanju has asked the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to disqualify candidates who visit churches or mosques to seek public support and vote ahead of the 2023 general elections.
He wrote on his Twitter page on Tuesday, August 30, Adeyanju mentioned that Nigerian law is against the use of religion or tribe to campaign, and INEC should take action against candidates violating the law.
In his words:
“2023: INEC should disqualify candidates that go to churches or mosques to campaign or solicit for support/votes. Our laws forbid the use of religion or tribe to campaign.”
