The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has responded to the allegations by the former president, Olusegun Obasanjo, that the commission could not be trusted to conduct a free and fair election.

He said: “This is to be expected in an election year when people make all sorts of insinuations.

“I want to tell you that we as a commission have never been under any pressure to do what is wrong. We will never compromise our integrity to do what the law says that we shouldn’t and for the 2019 general elections, I want to assure and reassure Nigerians that votes and nothing but votes will count.”
