Professor Jideofor Adibe says the National Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) Mahmood Yakubu should have resigned in the wake of the 2023 elections.

Nigerians went to the polls earlier in the year to elect their president, governors, and national and state lawmakers. But the exercise, especially the presidential election, was heavily criticised by local and foreign bodies.

The criticisms were enough for the INEC chief to have stepped aside, according to Adibe.

“I think I have this several times even in 2019. INEC cannot deliver anything now because it has a legitimacy crisis,” the professor of political science said on Channels Television’s end-of-year show, “2023: Year Of Transition”.

“The first thing that should have been done is for Professor Mahmood to go. In climes where honour means anything, even if you feel you have done your best, to the extent that international and local observers have condemned and heavily criticised the conduct of the election, the best thing you should do is to step aside. His life does not need to depend on it. You step aside for the sake of the integrity of that institution. And for as long as it remains, I don’t think anybody will think they can get anything from INEC.”

Absolutely,

Another idiot
Ogun kill your Mama .

Once Mahmoud Yakubu resigns. Tinubu will name Babatunde Raji Fashola as new INEC Chairman because no Yoruba man has been Chairman since INEC was created. Anybody that wants to die can die. The President has the prerogative to nominate whosoever he wants, and the Senate headed by Tinubu's left hand man Godswill Akpabio will surely approve it.

Una go cry tire. Your hearts will know no peace

That man is simply not fit to be called a professor, I wi der where he got is professorship from, typical example of people who bought their professorship, without any tangible contribution to their field...

Mahmood Yakubu is not a coward.

I voted during the presidential election and I waited at the poll to get the result and APC won my unit I also went to some other polls in my area, APC also won most of the polls.

You people just want to tarnish the image of this man, I put it to you sir you are a wicked human being

Yakubu is a completely corrupt man, who has sold his soul for material gains, but he can't get away, he'll definitely pay for what he did

The rigging that took place in the whole of South East during the Presidential election is the worst in the history of Nigeria. I totally agree with you.

But you see Rivers State. It is the reflection of the choice of the people based on their loyalty to Governor Wike.

Well what I find most amusing is how not 1 but 27 formerly PDP legislators defected to APC. Is it INEC that rigged them into APC? Some people still believe that INEC rigged the presidential election for Tinubu in Rivers state. Rivers people willingly voted for APC during the Presidential election and PDP at the gubernatorial. Courtesy of their loyalty to Governor Wike.

I seconded this call for Yakubu to resign, especially because of the rigging that took place in SouthEast as if only one party registered for election.
