Senate President Ahmad Lawan on Tuesday called for the establishment of an Electoral Offences Commission in the country.

Lawan stated this while answering questions from Course 29 participants at the National Defence College in Abuja, where he delivered a paper, titled: Strategic Leadership: My Political Experience.

The Senate President noted that such a commission would help to bring electoral offenders to book to minimise the number of electoral law breakers.

“I believe we should have an Electoral Offences Commission. I believe it will help to minimise incidents of people taking the law into their hands during elections to perpetuate violence in order to influence the outcome of the voting process,” Lawan said.

The Senate President described the social media as one of the greatest challenges political leaders currently face across the world.

“Maybe throughout history, no leadership ever faced the kind of challenge that is being faced by present leaders because of social media. Today, almost everybody is a journalist,” he said.
