INEC has started strategic engagement with disability groups ahead of the 2027 general elections. The commission is working with the Joint National Association of Persons with Disabilities (JONAPWD) and other organisations to enhance participation of persons with disabilities. Acting INEC Chairman, Prof. Rhoda Gumus, stated that the engagement focuses on sensitisation and mobilisation to ensure eligible voters with disabilities receive adequate information. The initiative is supported by legal frameworks, including Section 54 of the Electoral Act.
