CONSANGUINEOUS relations are usually celebrated in Nigeria, because when you are related by blood to a person, there are family obligations and expectations that you look out for one another.
Last week, when the respected former lawmaker and former top civil servant, Alhaji Tanko Yakassai, revealed that he knew the “Acting-Chairperson” of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) “Mrs. Amina Zakari since childhood, and that her late father, the former Emir of Kazaure, was married to President Buhari’s elder sister.”

Alhaji Yakassai, in the interview conducted by Tribune of July 27, 2015 at page 22 added that President “Buhari lived with and spent a significant part of his early years in the home of Amina Zakari’s father”. He emphasised that “Amina Zakari’s father worked under me as a Permanent Secretary and was a close friend for many years.”

In effect, the ties of Mrs. Zakari to the President prior to this recent claim, was in fact much more familial than any of the parties had been willing to admit. It is a shock that reveals a streak of nepotism that elevates the courage and integrity of the former President Goodluck Jonathan, who had searched very widely and very carefully for a man of integrity to ensure that the impartiality of the electoral umpire was unblemished by suspicions of partisanship.

And the dullard wants us to have his " Daughter" as INEC boss? God forbid bad thing

God don send breeze to open fowl yash!

A Dullard shall always remain a dullard

Hmm.. . NICE gist

ok o! watching with 3D glass! this country is fraud!

This is the much talked about change and transparency that APC brag about. Why bring your daughter to be INEC chairperson and an APC member to be director DSS harassing Akwa Ibom & Rivers INEC Rep while the rep in the north with confirmed bribe taking is walking free. In this country soonest President GEJ will be celebrated as a detribalized true leader and a lover of Nigeria. At lest monkey and baboon blood had not soak in the Niger creeks.

This is already an affirmed story. Its normal for despots to hand out key positions in the government to friends and family members so as to secure their autocratic hold on the people. Buhari has simply taken out of the Dictators text book, an old tactic on how to hold on to power. Look at the two positions he assigned to his family members. The head of the electoral body and the head of the national security agency. All that is left for him to do is to rig elections and prior to that terrorise all influential threats. We are simply witnessing the birth of an overlord. But if he thinks he will be successful in this 21st century and age, then he is mistaken .If he is not cateful , he will end up spending the rest of his life in the Hague for war crimes and mass murder.

as long as the senate,house of rep are not interested in pursuing equity and your falanas,the chanji chanters and media platform are salient.
it shows that this might be a 1984 regime and electoral reforms might be hit.

Wow..You look so beautiful

That Amina woman can never be confirmed Inec Chairman. They are waiting for her and her uncle in the senate.

Rubbish! Was it Buhari or Jonathan that appointed her an INEC commissioner is the first place? When did it become a crime, for example, that a civil servant for many years cannot be a permanent secretary because his relation is a serving governor or president?
