Call For My Resignation  Misplaced, Results Emanating From States Free, Fair, Credible – INEC Chairman
Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

The Chairman of the Independent National Electoral commission (INEC), Prof. Mahmud Yakubu,
has said the demand for his resignation by the combined team of the Peoples Democratic Party, Labour Party and the African Democratic Party on Tuesday was misplaced.

The three parties, who claimed to be speaking on behalf of other political parties in the ongoing electoral exercise, had called for the resignation accusing Yakubu of messing up the electoral process.

But in a swift reaction, Rotimi Oyekanmi, his Chief Press Secretary, responded saying the call is irresponsible.

He said, “The call by the Labour Party and the People’s Democratic Democratic Party on the INEC Chairman, Prof. Mahmood Yakubu
to resign is misplaced.”

Describing allegation by the agent of the PDP, Dino Melaye as unfounded, Oyekanmi said contrary to the insinuation by both parties, results emanating from the States point to a free, fair and credible process.

“There are laid down procedures for aggrieved parties or candidates to follow when they are dissatisfied about the outcome of an election. Such procedures do not include calling on the INEC Chairman to resign or for the election to be cancelled,” he said

He went further, “To be sure, aggrieved parties are free to approach the courts to ventilate their concerns and wait for the matter to be resolved.

“Making inciting comments capable of causing violence or unrest is unacceptable.”

He argued that the 2023 General election processes are in their final stages of completion.

“It is only fair for aggrieved parties to allow the conclusion of the process and approach the courts with their evidences to pursue their cases,” he concluded.
