The Elections Observation Group (ELOG) has raised concerns over widespread voter bribery, campaign violence, and voter inducement ahead of Thursday's Ol Kalou by-election, warning that the practices could undermine the credibility of the poll.

The election observer group says it has documented several incidents during the campaign period that raise concerns over compliance with electoral laws and has already submitted its findings to the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC).

ELOG says it is now up to the commission to decide whether the by-election should proceed as scheduled.
