| description | Propose - The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) is the electoral umpire
responsible for the conduct of general elections in Nigeria and other related electoral activities
since the resurgence of democratic rule in 1999. One of these important electoral activities carried
out by INEC is campaign monitoring and political party financing activities as provided in the
Nigerian Constitution and 2010 Electoral Act. This paper examined the role of INEC in monitoring
candidates and parties’ expenditure during the 2015 General Elections. The major problem is
the way parties and candidates violated the regulations while INEC as the monitoring body was
watchful without any concrete action. |
