No it does not, that is political interference. I hope PDP knows this.

It is only Professor Jega that was constitutional mandated to appoint acting INEC chairman and not Mr President.

On this note, Prof. Jega appointed five different acting chairmen at different times when he was away from Nigeria to oversee the activities of the agency. All these times there was no time President Jonathan interfered.

For President Buhari to appoint INEC Chairman and commissioners, there are process to follow which he didn't follow but rather chose to sack a commissioner whose tenor never ended and as far as this decision remains, it is null and void and of no effect whatsoever.

I will be back

PDP and other parties would indeed do the needful should the need arise.I just want to believe PDP are waiting till July 21st when Zakaria's tenure @ INEC elapses to see what PMB will do before taking any further action

dekdek:
Ibofool, go to court and Sue the commander in chief.

Seriously I wonder why the case is not yet in court.My guess is maybe because the next elections are still months away and Zakaria's tenure would elpase in a few days time

empireSOM:



I suspect that and also that Buhari might opt for a Northerner to ocupy that position wen it is suppose to go south. A Northerner just completed a tenure. He might go southwest as with all his appointment.

chukwudi44:


The question is not even whether the ag INEC boss is a southerner or northerner but whether Buhari had any powers under the 1999 constitution to overule Jega's handover and appoint an ag INEC boss without getting the requisite approval from the NASS

This is the part where APC is faster than PDP, they would have made noise and propaganda out of it.


See how PDP just they watch, no court case or propaganda. I guess Buhari does not have that power but it is up to PDP to challenge it in court.

Dannyset:

Bro easy nao! Has it gotten to this?

MzJackBaueress:
Ngwakwe,you haven't answered the Op's question and you are already emotional. We are talking of appointing in acting capacity and not a full appointment.

A notable constitutional amendment was also made to insulate INEC from the control of the President of the federation in running its affairs.


Like any other independent body created under the Constitution, INEC had the power to issue rules “to regulate its own procedure or confer powers and impose duties on any officer or authority for the purpose of discharging its functions.” To do so, however, it needed presidential approval previously.

The need for presidential
approval was eliminated by constitutional amendment, giving INEC absolute power to regulate itself for the purpose of carrying out its functions.

Una go die for nothing! Pmb would appoint anybody he feels like and the only thing u tandriods can do is wail as usual. PDP had the opportunity to remove this power from the presidency but they thought the would rule for 60 years as sure no need. Its payback time and Nigerian have no sympathy for the devilish party.

I want to believe there are waiting for PMB's line of action after Zakari's INEC tenure expires on June 21st to act.

chukwudi44:


Ode PMB can indeed nominate whomsever he wishes but that appointment is subject to parlaiamentary approval

MyMouth:

Grandpa, your old age is really affecting ur indomin brain! I hope u would be on the floor of the Senate to stall the confirmation of whoever pmb nominates! As for now, Zakari would act, u can go and eat shi.t! Foolish old Igbo dog!

chukwudi44:

olodo Zakari's tenure at INEC ends on July 21st.There is nothing your dullard can do about that.I hope you realise your dullard does not control the senate and judging from the recent turn of events he had just awoken a sleeping Tiger in the person of IBB.
