President Muhammadu Buhari had written to the Senate in October last year seeking its confirmation of Lauretta Onochie and others as...

“Also, Mr Mike Igini, the Resident Electoral Commissioner for Akwa Ibom State, hails from the same state and his tenure will end in August 2022. Neither Mrs Agbamuche-Mbu nor Mr Igini has been removed from office.“Therefore, Ms Onochie’s confirmation will contravene the Federal Character principle as enshrined in the 1999 constitution of Nigeria as amended.

“Second, Ms Onochie does not hide her partisan support for the ruling All Progressives Congress and she is likely a card-carrying member of the party. “This, therefore, precludes her from being appointed into INEC. Section 156 and Item F, Paragraph 14 of the Third Schedule of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, 1999, forbid an appointee to INEC to be a political party member or a partisan individual.
