Phillips stated this on Friday at the commission’s office in the Yaba area of the state.
The chairman said the allegations of manipulation against the commission were unfounded, adding that LASIEC under her watch would follow the rule of law.
Phillips said, “We will also make efforts that will ensure mass participation in the July 22, 2017 LG election. The commission is irrevocably committed to the entrenchment of democratic norms and ideals in the electoral process at the local government level.
