The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) is set to inaugurate its logistics committee for the 2027 general elections on Thursday in Abuja.
The inauguration will be followed by an inaugural meeting between the commission’s leadership and members of the committee at INEC’s headquarters.
The committee is expected to coordinate logistics and distribution arrangements to ensure the smooth conduct of the forthcoming elections.
Its membership includes representatives of transport and maritime organisations, aviation authorities, security agencies and paramilitary services.
Among the organisations listed are the Nigeria Road Transport Union, Maritime Workers Union, Nigeria Airport Authority and Road Transport Owners Association. The police, Nigerian Air Force and Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps are also represented.
INEC is expected to brief members on their responsibilities and outline the measures required to ensure the timely and efficient movement of election materials.
The initiative forms part of the commission’s preparations to strengthen operational coordination and prevent logistical challenges during the 2027 general elections.
