Amina Zakari, a national commissioner at the Independent and National Electoral Commission (INEC), has been appointed to head the collation centre of the elections.

Zakari was appointed to head the committee on collation centre, one of the two committees for the election which the commission inaugurated on Thursday in Abuja.

Speaking during the inauguration, Mahmood Yakubu, INEC chairman, said the committee shall be responsible for the national collation centre – the International Conference Centre – from where results of the Presidential election will be announced.

“It will serve as the secretariat for collation of results and venue for briefing of international observers and the media,” he said.

WHO IS ZAKARI?

The national commissioner was once appointed acting chairman of INEC.

She had been at the commission’s department of health and welfare after being redeployed as the head of electoral operations and logistics.



Her redeployment took place after the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) accused her of working for President Muhammadu Buhari and demanded that she be moved.

Kola Ologbondiyan, spokesman of the PDP, had said in a statement: “While Prof. Mahmood Yakubu can no longer be trusted to conduct the 2019 general election, it is public knowledge that Mrs Amina Zakari, the INEC Director in charge of Operations and ICT, is a direct blood relation of Mr President and as such, we believe that she cannot be an impartial arbiter in an election involving her uncle.”

The party had also told the commission not to “bow to pressure” and return Zakari to her former position.The second committee, on electoral logistics, is chaired by Ahmed Mu’azu, national commissioner.

It includes key government institutions and security agencies whose roles according to the chairman are defined in the electoral act.

He refused to sign the electoral bill that lagalises

Barefaced molestation of opposition ooo
The number 3 points gives them vile liberty to sway the votes ooo

Then I say
Let nature and fate take the wheel!!!

nice one

The fact is he is making it easy to take everything to court. Fighting the cases in the court is looking much easier for smart lawyers.

Buhari setting bad record for Nigeria is he going to be there forever

Interesting, how can you be a player in a game were your blood relative is the referee. I think she should have resigned from Inec and given another federal appointment.

Court?
Buhari and his henchmen do not believe in courts, especially the ones that disagree with them. How many court orders have they ignored over the past 2 years?
