The President-elect of the Nigerian Bar Association, Oyinkansola Badejo-Okusanya, SAN, has said she would resign if credible evidence emerged that the election which produced her as the association’s next president was rigged.
Badejo-Okusanya stated this on Thursday during an interview on TVC News while responding to allegations by some contestants and lawyers that the 2026 NBA presidential election was manipulated in her favour.
She insisted that the election, conducted through electronic voting, was subjected to unprecedented scrutiny and showed no signs of manipulation.
“The process that they say they cannot trust, my opponents are saying that it was rigged in my favour and thankfully, this electoral process has come under the greatest scrutiny that any of our elections have come under since we started universal suffrage and electronic voting,” she said.
According to her, there were no indications of vote dumping or sudden spikes in votes that could suggest manipulation.
