Buhari Appoints Acting INEC Boss, As Jega Bows Out


Yesterday we had from newspapers & television websites that Ambassador Mohammad Wali received handover from Jega as the acting INEC Boss. But the latest information from presidency media aide contradicted the report and reveals that;
President Muhammadu Buhari has appointed Mrs Amina Bala Zakari (pictured top left) as the Acting Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) following the conclusion of the term of office of Prof. Attahiru Jega.
The Head of the Civil Service of the Federation, Barr. Danladi Kifasi, who conveyed the appointment in a letter, said it was with effect from 30th June 2015 until the appointment of a substantive Chairman.
Mrs. Zakari is presently a National Electoral Commissioner at INEC.
