You really overate this your Daura President!! Did you read Senator Nwaoboshi's interview on Vanguard last sunday.If APC did not learn anything from what happened on June 9 then I feel real sorry for them
Even when PDP spokesman spoke some weeks ago he couldn't help but openly say PMB is the only person who ain't corrupt in APC so he's integrity ain't in question at all and you know that

Re: Buhari Set To Confirm Zakari As INEC Chairman: Punch by Nobody: 7:14am On Aug 20, 2015
Not the right choice....what with all the conflict of interest things.....

Should have gotten someone else....or begged Jega to stay for another four years.

There is nothing wrong with a female being INEC boss.

Useless newspaper!! It is not the perogative of the president to conform her as the substantive INEC chairman.He can only forward her name to the senate where a 2/3 majority vote is needed for her confirmation.
which senate? Buhari is not ruling with constitution, so there's notin like senates in naija

Yeah sure their supports would be needed but at this point i can hardly see any senator (Both APC and PDP) who will publicly go against PMB cuz they all got a past which can hunt them down
Just negodu gi.

When we remind you lot that you are running a government of subtle oppression and blackmail, you begin to cry wolf.

Pray tell,
How on earth is it sane to force your opinion or candidate down the throats of over 48 senators who represent a vast majority of Nigerians? Simply because you think they have some baggage with which you can hound them?

Doesn't that amount to dictatorship and witch-hunting? The hunter might turn out to be the hunted y'know...
If they have baggage, why not look for ways to throw them out instead of using them as bait to achieve crooked aims.

if we want a better Nigeria, we should start telling ourselves the truth.. if allegations that she is related to the president is true, then she has no business being in such a sensitive organisation, even worse in such a position. it's not done anywhere in the world where the intention is to practise democracy and not just talk about it
That is the truth we never want to accept as a country.Either we get above ethnic or political sentiments or allow them to consume us.

My mumu grandson the stupid and incompetent imposter will not survive the senatorial screening.You can take that to the banks.

PMB would need support from senators from the "dying" party to make her INEC chairman

PMB would need PDP senators support to make her INEC chairman else she is going no where.The both parties must agree before an INEC chairman is appointed
. . . and how would that stop the elections in Kogi and Bayelsa states from holding?

Since the impostor is not the returning officer for the election,it might still go on but any victory in those elections stands the very heavy risk of been annulled since the law setting up the constitution did not provide for an acting INEC chairman.

Lawyers might capitalize on technicalities to rubbish such elections.

Buhari is set to confirm his relative as INEC chairman.

Please what again was the definition of corruption?
Show me the section of the Constitution or any of our criminal laws that bars a person whose relation holds an elective post from holding an appointive position.
Re: Buhari Set To Confirm Zakari As INEC Chairman: Punch by aksule(m): 8:09am On Aug 20, 2015
I expect Mr President to appoint INEC chairman from any geographical area but certainly not from the north west more so from his home state. Those who thought Buhari is next to God may not see anything wrong from his action and in actions. He is not a religious leader but a politician. Even religious leaders have their shortcomings not to talk of politicians.
