<h1>INEC Chairman, Prof. Mahmood Yakubu, made this known at the 5th Northern Traditional Rulers General Assembly with the theme “pervasive insecurity in an election year” in Kaduna on Wednesday.</h1>

<p class=””><em>“Our politicians are not democratic and that is the reason why some of them keep crossing from one political party to the other,</em>” he said.</p>

<p class=””><strong>Yakubu </strong>assured that <strong>INEC </strong>would continue to improve on its logistics to enable it conduct hitch-free election in 2019.</p>

<p class=””>He further explained that conducting election in one state is more difficult than conducting general election.</p>

<p class=””><em>“It is more difficult to conduct election in one state than conducting general election, because people will be more focused on the state where the election is taking place,”</em> he said.</p>

<p class=””>Yakubu said there were improvements in the last Osun election, saying that voting materials arrived at the polling unit early.</p>

<p class=””>He promised to consolidate on that and ensure that the 2019 general election meet the global standard.</p>
