A former Minister of Aviation, Osita Chidoka, has called on President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to take decisive action about the conduct of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) and probe its Chairman, Professor Mahmood Yakubu, following the uproar that greeted the outcome of last year’s general elections.
Chidioka, who was a guest on Channels Television’s Sunday Politics, charged the president to swiftly do to Prof. Yakubu what was done to the former governor of the Central Bank, Godwin Emefiele.
The chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, and former FRSC Marshall said the President ought to remove Yakubu just as he suspended Emefiele and initiate a probe into INEC and its Chairman’s operations to give an account for the last polls.
“For the kind of uproar that the election caused, the way he went after the CBN governor is the way I think he should have set up a panel to look into INEC,” Chidoka asserted.
“It would have been unimportant if he faced what I considered the critical issues about Nigerians making their choices.”
