 The Speaker of the House of Representatives, Honourable Fermiq Bajapiamila says Nigeria is ready for the upcoming 2023 general election despite rumors from some quarters that there will be a likely postponement. The Speaker gave the assurance when he received the delegation of the International EU Election Observer Mission who paid him a courtesy call in his office. He however conceded that there are some delays in the collection of permanent voters' cards but assured the visiting delegation that the Independent National Electoral Commission INEC is working to ensure that the issues are resolved. Yes, the election has come upon us and I think we're prepared for it. I think those who have settled with the responsibility of making sure that we conduct free-faring elections have done what they need to do and starting from Mr. President to the National Assembly to the INEC officials. I want to believe that the buck has now allowed us to be passed on to the people themselves who have to be vigilant and to make sure that their votes count. You get notified about fresh news updates.
