The Independent National Electoral Commission INEC has decided to write the Inspector General of Police (IGP), Usman Baba Alkali, demanding the investigation of its Resident Electoral Commissioner (REC) in Adamawa State, Barrister Hudu Yunusa-Ari for possible prosecution.

INEC also resolved to write the Secretary to the Government of the Federation (SGF), Boss Mustapha with a view to acquainting President Muhammadu Buhari with the “unwholesome” activities of the REC and possibly reviewing his appointment.

INEC’s action was premised on Yunusa-Ari’s declaration of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Governorship candidate, Aisha Dahiru, popularly known as Binani, as the Governor-elect in Saturday’s supplementary election before the conclusion of the collation process.

The decisions were a fallout of the Commission’s meeting on Tuesday in Abuja.

It added that the collation process in Adamawa shall resume at a time to be determined by the Returning Officer.

A communique of its meeting released via its Twitter handle: “At its meeting today, 18th April 2023, the Commission discussed matters arising from the Adamawa Governorship election and decided to:

“Write to the Inspector-General of Police (IGP) for the immediate investigation and possible prosecution of the Resident Electoral Commissioner (REC) for Adamawa State, Barr. Hudu Yunusa Ari.

“Request the Secretary to the Government of the Federation to draw the attention of the appointing authority to the unwholesome behaviour of the REC for further action.

“The collation process shall resume at a time to be determined by the Returning Officer”, the commission stated.
