Pressure group,
CODGHA, says calls by the Institute of Economic Affairs for the EC Strong room
to be abolished must be ignored.
According to the group, any attempt to tamper with the current set up of
the Strong room will cause havoc for the country during elections. The IEA has
suggested the replacement of the strong room with a National Collation Center
which will be opened and accessible to many political party representatives and
other stakeholders. The Strong Room
serves as the national collations center for the Electoral Commission during
elections. In a statement, on Monday, CODGHA said any attempt to scrap the strong room will be
counterproductive. The group is rather proposing the establishment of replica
Strong rooms in the various EC regional offices across
the country.
