The House of Representatives has passed a resolution against any plan to remove the chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) Prof Attahiru Jega ahead of the general election on March 28.

The House, in a motion sponsored by Rep Ali Ahmed (APC, Kwara) said any action by the federal government or any other agency to tamper with the present status quo of the conduct of the election would spell doom for the country. Members of the House agreed that any individual or association who moved for the removal of the INEC chairman ahead of the polls should be held accountable, as that would create chaos in the land. But the motion scaled through despite facing opposition from the deputy House Leader, Rep Leo Ogor who said the motion was speculative and that nobody is under any illusion of seeing Jega removed at this time.

Ok. But what if his tenure expire the election?

Good move.
You cannot trust GEJ. He's desperate to retain power and would do anything to rig.

Fear of Buhari is real. Kiriki is no vacation spot.

Beauty of democracy....
This has been made possible due the to numerical strength of APC in the house and Much thanks to Aminu Tambuwal....
no thanks to Leo ogor
Remove or don't remove Jega, I have decide and concluded to vote:













Buhari

And


Osinbajo


As the President and Vice President respectively

Resoultion is not binding or a law is more like an advice.Jega will be removed according to the law and nothing will happen

He can be suspended but only by the national assembly in a two-thirds vote and not the president. That is what the constitution of Nigeria says.

smart move

Suspension is different from Sacking.

The president has no power to sack him, yes but he can SUSPENDED him if he so wish
