Abdulrasheed Bawa, the chairman of the EFCC, has urged all workers assigned to election monitoring responsibilities to act bravely.

Bawa cautioned them not to provide opportunities for dishonest people to tamper with the election’s integrity through money inducement.

All the federation’s states and the FCT currently have tactical teams of operatives on the ground, according to the commission.

In order for the public to provide information about financial malpractices, phone hotlines have already been advertised on social media, continued Uwujaren.
