Temidayo Akinsuyi, Lagos

President Muhammadu Buhari has appointed INEC chairman, Prof. Mahmood Yakubu for another five year term.

In a letter to President of the Senate, Ahmad Ibrahim Lawan, the President said in accordance with the provision of Section 154 (1) of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, 1999 (as amended), “I am pleased to present for confirmation by the Senate, the nomination of Professor Mahmood Yakubu for appointment as Chairman, Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) for a second and final term.”

Prof Yakubu was first appointed by President Buhari in November 2015.

He is Buhari’s kinsman, hence the reason for the reappointment.

Had it been a southerner, Buhari would not reappoint him.

PMB I hail thee! When a Southerners tenure expires he replaces him or her with a Northerner.

But when a Northerners tenure expires he reappoint him or her.

Reason he does it is to reduce the anger and rage from Southerners of shouting Northernisation agenda.

South:

Dakuku Peterside of NIMASA was replaced by a Northerner

Tunde Fowler of FIRS was replaced by a Northerner.

Adeosun of Minister of Finance was replaced by a Northerner.

The PENCOM woman replaced by a Northerner.

Immigration boss replaced by a Northerner

NNPC boss from a Northerner to a Northerner

The list goes on.

North:

Hadiza of NPA reappointed

Custom boss reappointed

INEC boss now reappointed

Chief of Army staff reappointed

Chief of Air force reappointed.

The list goes on.
