INEC fumes over humiliation of national commissioner in Adamawa

The Independent National Electoral Commissioner, INEC, has tasked security agencies to arrest and prosecute those who brutalised one of its national commissioners deployed to Adamawa state for Saturday’s supplementary governorship poll.

INEC national commissioner in charge of information and voter education, Festus Okoye, said the commission will not allow the humiliation of one of the two national commissioners deployed to Adamawa state.

He said the perpetrators must be unmasked, arrested and prosecuted.

Okoye also said the resident electoral commissioner in Adamawa, Yunusa Ari, has arrived Abuja over an invalid declaration of Aisha ‘Binani’ Dahiru of the APC winner of the governorship election.
