The Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), Professor Mahmood Yakubu, has revealed that the process for the recall of Senator Dino Melaye, representing Kogi West Senatorial District, was being delayed by the court and the legal process initiated by the lawmaker.

Yakubu, however, insisted that the agency will not give up.

He stated this in Abuja on Tuesday, during a dialogue session with civil society organisations under the aegis of Nigeria Civil Society Situation Room.

Yakubu also said INEC has learnt some lessons from the Melaye recall process and has now reviewed its regulations and guidelines.

“These are legal processes. We cannot, as law abiding agency, ignore the court and just proceed.

“Supposing we do so, proceed; conclude the process and the court nullifies it? So we said we will continue to obey the law on this matter of recall. But I will not like to say more, because the matter is already before the court,” he said.
