FRIDAY, DECEMBER 10, 2004           Guobadia on under-18 in voters� registration From ADAMU YAKASAI, Gusau THE Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has advised those below 18 years not to present themselves for registration as it will soon commence continuous registration exercise of voters nationwide. The chairman of the commission, Sir Abel Guobadia gave the advice in Gusau at the opening of a one-day workshop for all political stakeholders and INEC staff, Tuesday. He similarly advised those who had registered during last registration exercise to keep away to avoid multiple registration. Mr. Guobadia therefore appealed to state and local governments, including political party leaders and royal fathers to assist and support the commission in its public enlightenment campaign on this task. The chairman urged the political parties, candidates and their respective supporters to appreciate the need for peaceful polity, "thus, electioneering should not be regarded as a do-or-die affair". He recalled that the few cases of violence experienced in some parts of the country during 2003 general elections should not be allowed to return in future conduct of elections. On the workshop, he said, it was organized to promote understanding between INEC, political parties and other stakeholders which would go a long way in developing sound security, peace and stability in the country. Mr. Guobadia also showered encomiums on government and people of Zamfara state over the peaceful and conducive atmosphere for the conduct of hitch-free elections in the political history of Nigeria. "INEC is appealing to the political party leaders in Zamfara state to continue in the effort to organize supporters to conduct respective political partisan affairs in a peaceful manner, as always been the case, so that Zamfara state remains a model of political stability to be emulated by others".
