Why is Mike Igini not on the list? He's a no-nonsense, no-bribe personality but they won't consider him because they don't want to conduct a credible election.

Tinubu would obviously appoint his stooge.
But that will not save him from being kicked out of Aso Rock come 2027.
Day dreamer. Even if he appoint your Agulu cult leader Obi, Tinubu will still win. Take that to the bank.

It would be better for Tinubu to appoint Seyi, than to appoint Justice Liman, what a crooked fellow

Why should this matter at this time if it were not for greed and political gains? The race to select the next election's 'puppet' is on. The "chief rigger" position is now up for bidding.

People will still speak negatively about the appointment even if president Tinubu picks Jesus, so let him pick anyone he wants. He needs to pick the one he can trust and vouch for, if anything goes wrong, at least he knows it’s 100% his decision. You can’t decide for someone and still expect them to take the blame when things go ugly.

I think Adams Oshiomole should be the next inec chairman he knows how to “get the job done”

What do you all think ?
I think gabduje will be better, in that position.

A president shouldn't be appointing inec chairman and CJN

Whoever is appointed should put the country first

The lawmakers should amend the Constitution that gives power to the president to appoint INEC Chairman

Sorry despite I'm not from SW that Ukeagu is cancelled he will join obi to promote obidient and ipob mission to compromise what sane Nigerians want.

We can not hand over our nation to people who refused to believe in Nigeria project since Lord Luggard era till date.

They are my people but on National matter I'm not with them.

Quote me and say whatever I don't care.

A Yoruba man should be appointed as next INEC Chairman.. there is no law stopping Yoruba person from heading INEC. The Igbos and Hausas that have been heading the electoral umpire don't have two heads.
Re: Who Succeeds Yakubu As INEC Chair?- Daily Trust by ViceGovernor: 7:23am On Sep 21, 2025
A Yoruba man preferably from the south west.

Tinubu has no path to victory even if he appoints Seyi Tinubu
2023 he was not holding any political office, he was not president the president was against his candidacy, Senate president was against him, his party chairman was against him, millions of people from one tribe like that were all against him.

Hey somehow he managed to win capture the election.

Now that he has all the power with him what makes you think he will lose election.

Well,can you do anything about that?
NOTHING grin

Buhari made Tinubu win that election. The North gave him 60% of the votes. The North will not vote for him, SS ans SE will not vote for him. SW will only give him 50% so where will his win come from?

Sir Buhari did not make President Tinibu win in the North.....it was a case of if you can't beat them join them.

He saw the writing on the wall and the body language of the northern governors especially the powerful El rufai and he knew his plan wouldn't work so he had no choice but to fulfill his promise of handing over to Yoruba man.

He openly endorsed Ahmed Lawan in the primaries.
I will admit though if Buhari wanted Tinibu to lose 100 percent he could have done it.
Re: Who Succeeds Yakubu As INEC Chair?- Daily Trust by DMerciful(m): 2:58pm On Sep 21, 2025
Exactly. If Buhari wanted Tinubu to lose, he would have done it.

I have it on good authority that Buhari called Mahmmud 3 days to election to make sure Tinubu wins
