Calls For Resignation Of INEC Chairman Unfair-nans by JosEast(m): 11:51am On Feb 18, 2019
The National Association of Nigerian Students (NANS) says it is unfair to call for the resignation of Prof. Mahmood Yakubu as Chairman of Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) over election postponement.

NANS’ National Public Relations Officer (PRO), Mr Bestman Okereafor, said this in a statement he issued in Enugu on Monday.

Okereafor said: “Even though we frown at the manner and timing of the announcement of the postponement, we still consider the decision to be in the best interest of Nigerians.

“It is a reality that the postponement of the elections by INEC has in a great way exposed the faces of betrayals and which we expect political parties to be grateful for.’’

The NANS spokesman, however, said that it was on record that this was not the first time the nation was witnessing postponement in polls.

“Something similar occurred in 2015 under INEC leadership of Prof. Attahiru Jega.’’

“NANS considers the decision by INEC to postpone the elections to be in the best interest of Nigerians in defence of our democracy.’’

Okereafor implored all Nigerian students to remain “most peaceful and calm as the nation anticipates credible polls on Feb. 23.“

NAN reports that since INEC announced the postponement of the Presidential/National Assembly Elections on Saturday, many groups, political and apolitical have been calling for the resignation of INEC boss and his management team. (NAN)

Yeah this is not the first time election is being postponed

Even in 2011 it was postponed immediately after the commencement of the election

They should leave the man alone

And the response the man gave to one question yesterday got me laughing
I mean inec chairman yakubu Mahmoud was asked yesterday how he will go about the financial aspect because a lot of money have been spent already



He replied by saying " we are not complaining about money"

This is to say we are not a low budget asss broke Moda fuckkker

Sacking Inec chairman is a stupid idea. The man saw that there would be problems should the election go on as planned so he called it off. Allow the man do His job.
Re: Calls For Resignation Of INEC Chairman Unfair-nans by Augustus79: 12:07pm On Feb 18, 2019
Why then postponed elections less than 6 hours to the elections.

He is supposed to voluntarily resign his appointment.

This is a big shame for our democracy.

Well if he really did the postponement in the interest of our democracy, then he has our backing. But my problem with that postponement was that the timing was very wrong and invariably, the aftermath will result in low voter turnout.
