Following the recent reversal in some results of the April 2007 election
there had been calls on the INEC boss to quit his office because of
what they regarded as in-adequacy on the part of the commission.
Fellow nairalanders, what is your view concerning this? To me i think
the man should thread the path of honour and quit

As meaningful as resignation is to this particular case, lets not forget the party still in charge. A change of personnel might not bring a change of ideology. Iwu enjoys no immunity. I vote for prosecution by NBA for whatever offence they can find in the book of law that will work against iwu. Its time we start making scapegoats for the next generation.

The Process of reforming our electoral process is much more complicated than just changing the INEC Boss. Iwu can go for the sake of it, afterall it is always fashionable to have a scapegoat (resignation) after a monumental failure.
However if we do no change some arears of our constitution, change election schedules, sensitize Nigerians, reform political parties and modernize some of our electoral process even Bill Clinton or Nelson Mandela can not conduct a credible election in Nigeria.

Besides that some of the reversals were based on constitutional issues rather than the election itself. Like the issue of "disqualifying a candidate". I dont understand why such a critical issue should be left in the domain of political parties and not INEC.

So tribunals calling for fresh election as a result of that is not a reversal of result and thus should be blamed more on our defective constitution rather than defective INEC.
