The Legal Sub-Committee
Chairman: Hon Justice G. U. Ononiba
A schedule of all the measures which, under the 2006 Electoral Law, the Independent National Election Commission is obliged to take before polling begins has already been prepared.
The Legal Sub-Committee will continue to exercise overall vigilance on the legality or otherwise of the electoral process.
It will receive reports on an on-going basis from field operatives in wards and local government areas.
It will lodge an appeal when irregularities are reported and it will launch a legal challenge against every breach of the law which is not rectified.
It has the duty of moni- toring public radio and television stations to ensure their compliance with the constitutional requirement to give equal coverage to all contestants with effect from November 6.
