Recommendation 4 (Legal Framework) Nigeria 2011

http://aceproject.org/ero-en/regions/africa/NG/nigeria-final-report-general-elections-eu-2011/at_download/file

Any future amendments to election legislation should be enacted sufficiently in advance of elections to provide political parties, candidates and voters adequate time to become informed of the rules of the election process. Electoral legal framework adopted shortly before the elections undermines the legitimacy of the legislation and prevents related stakeholders from becoming informed in a timely manner of the rules of the election process, in accordance with the Protocol on Democracy and Good Governance of the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS).
