The Constitution should be amended to introduce a transparent, inclusive and accountable system so that the INEC’s Chairperson, INEC’s National Commissioners and Resident Electoral Commissioners would be nominated and appointed through an independent process as opposed to the current Presidential appointment. Such a process could be led for instance by the National Judicial Council, by the National Assembly or by a ad hoc committee.
