DAILY LAW TIPS by Onyekachi Umah,Esq.(Tip 269)

IT IS A CRIME FOR “INEC” OFFICIALS TO BE LATE TO POLLING UNITS IN
ANY PART OF NIGERIA.

All Polling Officers of Independent National Electoral
Commission (INEC) must report very early to polling units on any
Election Day in any part of Nigeria. It is a criminal offence to be
late without lawful excuse and is punishable with a fine of not
more than #500,000.00 or and 12 months imprisonment.

My authorities are sections 123(2) and 158 of the Electoral Act,
2010.
