He said the failure of INEC to discharge its duties efficiently has led to the rise in off-cycle elections.
Amadi said the off-cycle elections come with high security implications in the three states especially particularly in Imo.
He appealed to the electoral umpire not to repeat mistakes made before, during and after the 2023 general election.
