The Middle Belt Youth Forum (MBYF) has commended the Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), Dr. Amupitan, for what it described as an outstanding, transparent, and technologically efficient conduct of the recently concluded Anambra State Governorship Election, particularly over the use and transmission of electronic results.
In a statement released in Abuja and signed by its National President, the MBYF praised Dr. Amupitan for “exceeding the expectations of Nigerians and setting a new benchmark for credible, technology-driven elections in the country.”
According to the Forum, the deployment of the BVAS and electronic result transmission system brought a new level of credibility to the process, eliminating long-standing doubts and restoring faith in INEC’s capacity to conduct free, fair, and verifiable elections.
“What happened in Anambra was more than an election—it was a declaration that the Nigerian voter now matters again,” the statement said. “Dr. Amupitan and his team have demonstrated that integrity, innovation, and commitment can transform our electoral system. For once, the votes of the people counted, and the will of the electorate prevailed.”
The MBYF emphasized that the outcome of the Anambra election holds deep lessons for all regions, especially the Middle Belt, where communities have long demanded genuine representation through credible ballots rather than imposition or manipulation.
“The Anambra experience gives us hope that the will of the Middle Belt people will henceforth be fully respected,” the group declared.
