The Electoral Committee of the Nigerian Bar Association (ECNBA) ECNBA has issued a Request for Proposal (RFP) for the selection of an Election Service Provider (ESP) to the committee to provide the Electronic Voting platform to facilitate electronic voting at the 2024 NBA Elections.

Meanwhile, the committee has pegged 18th April, 2024 as the deadline for submission of bids while the successful bidder would be announced by 28th April, 2024.

CITY LAWYER recalls that former  Chairman of the National Human Rights Commission (NHRC), Prof. Chidi Odinkalu sensationally resigned from the 2022 electoral committee following prolonged delay in paying the balance of fees owed the erstwhile service provider.

In his resignation letter, he noted that while N18 million was contracted by the ECNBA for the 2022 voting service provider, “One year after the elections took place, we still owe the provider N5.4 million, representing 30% of the agreed sum.”
