A spokesperson for the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) presidential campaign council, Daniel Bwala has demanded the sack of the chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), Professor Mahmood Yakubu.
According to Bwala who spoke on Arise TV on Tuesday, Nigerians have totally lost trust in Yakubu and he is no longer fit to be the chairman of the electoral body.
He, therefore, called on President Muhammadu Buhari to immediately sack Yakubu as the INEC chairman so as to redeem his legacy of conducting free and fair elections.
This online medium reports the PDP chieftain spoke against the background of the outcome of the 2023 presidential election.
He said, “President Muhammadu Buhari has marred his electoral legacy, he has invalidated the signing of the Electoral Act because the whole essence of the Electoral Act was abused in this election.
“To redeem his electoral legacy, he must sack the INEC Chairman, Mahmood Yakubu, especially against the possibility of a run-off election.
“Nigerians have totally lost confidence in him and will require an unbiased umpire to prepare for this possibility.”
