Prof. Mahmood Yakubu, the reappointed Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), has handed over affairs of the commission to a National Commissioner, Air Vice Marshal Ahmed Muazu (retd). The development followed the expiration of the 5-year tenure of Prof. Yakubu.
President Muhammadu Buhari had on October 27 reappointed Prof. Yakubu for a second term of five years. His reappointment is subject to confirmation by the Senate and so Air Vice Marshal Muazu would only hold sway in the interim. Yakubu said, "Pending the conclusion of the statutory process, the remaining National Commissioners have resolved that AVM Ahmed Mu’azu (rtd) will oversee the affairs of the Commission. It is therefore my pleasure to hand over to him in the interim. We have worked as a team for the last four years. Therefore, there is nothing new to anyone of them”.
