In a statement, the Election Commission says that the news published in the media that a member of the Election Commission has resigned and that the members including the Chairman of the Commission have resigned are false.
The Commission states that the Election Commission, including the Chairman, will carry out its constitutional functions and the functions related to the 2023 local government election without any interruption, as planned.
The commission has further announced that it has been observed that false news is being created and propagated from time to time with the aim of undermining people’s trust in the Election Commission.
