The Independent National Electoral Commission INEC has suspended its Resident Electoral Commissioner REC in Adamawa state, Barr. Hudu Yunusa-Ari from office following his illegal declaration of the All Progressives Congress APC Governorship Candidate, Aisha Dahiru Binani as Governor-elect in last weekend’s rerun election.
Consequently, the REC has been ordered to
stay away from the office of the commission in Yola, Adamawa state.
INEC in a letter dated April 17, 2023 and
signed by its Secretary, Rose Oriaran-Anthony has therefore directed its
Administrative Secretary in the state to take charge of its affairs.
Part of the letter reads; “I hereby convey
the Commission’s decision that you (Barr. Hudu Yunusa Ari), Resident Electoral
Commissioner, Adamawa State should stay away from the Commission’s office in
Adamawa State immediately until further notice.
“The Administrative Secretary has been
directed to take full charge of INEC, Adamawa State with immediate effect”.
