INEC writes IGP, SGF, demands sack, arrest, prosecution of Adamawa REC


 During its meeting in Abuja on Tuesday, the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) made some important decisions regarding the Adamawa Governorship election. One of the decisions made was to write to the Inspector General of Police, IGP Usman Baba Alkali, requesting an investigation into the Resident Electoral Commissioner (REC) in Adamawa state, Barr. Hudu Yunusa-Ari, for possible prosecution.

Another decision made by INEC during the meeting was to write to the Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF), Mr. Boss Mustapha, in order to inform President Muhammadu Buhari about the "unwholesome" activities of the REC and to consider reviewing his appointment. This action was taken due to the concerns that have been raised about the behavior of the REC during the election.

The decisions made by INEC were a fallout of the Commission's meeting on Tuesday in Abuja. The Commission discussed matters arising from the Adamawa Governorship election and decided to take action against the REC in question. It is hoped that these actions will help to address the concerns that have been raised about the integrity of the election process.


Finally, it should be noted that the collation process in Adamawa will resume at a later date as determined by the Returning Officer. This decision was made in order to ensure that the election is conducted in a free, fair, and transparent manner, and to address any concerns that have been raised regarding the integrity of the election process. The Commission is committed to ensuring that the Adamawa Governorship election is conducted in a manner that is transparent and free from any form of malpractice.
