A National Commissioner at the Independent National Electoral Commission, May Agbamuche-Mbu, will take over as the Acting Chairman of the Commission.
This followed the formal handover of duties by Professor Mahmood Yakubu, who is proceeding on a terminal leave.
The announcement was made on Tuesday at the INEC headquarters in Abuja during a stakeholders’ meeting with Resident Electoral Commissioners.
Professor Mahmood Yakubu has handed over leadership of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to May Agbamuche, who now serves as the Acting National Chairman of the commission.
Agbamuche, recognised as the oldest serving National Commissioner in the electoral body, assumed the role following Yakubu’s handover on Tuesday during a meeting with Resident Electoral Commissioners at the INEC headquarters in Abuja.
Professor Mahmood urged commissioners and directors of the commission to extend their full support to Agbamuche until a substantive chairman is appointed.
