The Electoral Act (Amendment) Bill 2018 has been the subject of much controversy in the past few months in Nigeria. Elections in Nigeria are conducted based on the 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria (as amended), the prevailing Electoral Act and INEC Guidelines. As there are under 5 months to go till the 2019 General Elections, many stakeholders are keenly interested in the Electoral Act because it forms the foundation for the conduct of elections in the country.
