In the Extraordinary Constituents General Assembly the modified Modalities were present, reviewed and approve in a vote to the tune of 98%.

The bill now clarifies how the vetting results can be shared, removes the appendage of pay for the President and the meaning of and timing for the publication of the list of qualified voters.

In a bid to ensure any polls are free, fair and transparent, LGA chairs alone constitute the electoral college and it is they or their designated representatives who will cast a vote reflecting their prior LGA vote. This means that all who join an LGA and fulfil their civic duties according to the provisions of the Code will be able to express their choice through their LGA and will have the same weight as their LGA chairs and their RC representatives, who will, similarly have the same weight, voting at their LGA.
