The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) on Monday announced its opening of a Citizens\u2019 Contact Centre, a facility allowing the general public constant access to the Commission with enquiries and exchange of information.<\/p>\n

According to Chief Press Secretary to INEC Chairman, Kayode Idowu, the INEC Citizens Contact Centre (ICCC) is a Situation Room that operates daily.<\/p>\n

\u201cAt this early stage, it will open between\u00a09am and 5pm\u00a0on weekdays. Later on, the Centre will scale up to round-the-clock (i.e. 24-hour) service every day. The centre is designed to enhance transparency and public participation in the electoral process,\u201d Kayode said.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs a daily Situation Room, the Centre offers the public an opportunity for getting real time responses to enquiries, incident-reports, complaints and queries about any aspect of the electoral process. In the immediate instance, the centre is available for use by the public during the Continuous Voter Registration (CVR) that began in Anambra State on\u00a0Monday, August 19, 2013.\u201d<\/p>\n

The centre is accessible through telephone lines\u00a0(07098115257, 07098117563 and 07098110916), Facebook (www.facebook.com\/inecnigeria, INEC Nigeria), Twitter (@inecnigeria) and INEC\u2019s website\u00a0(inecnigeria.org).<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
