INEC suspends staff leave

The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has ordered its staff to suspend any further annual leave as it ramps up preparations for the 2027 general elections.

The directive was issued in a bid to ensure that the commission’s workforce remains fully available during the critical period leading up to the nationwide polls.

While the announcement focuses on the suspension of leave, it signals a broader push by INEC to tighten operational readiness and maintain momentum in its election‑related activities.

No additional details were released regarding other staff measures, such as allowance adjustments, at this time.
