The Concerned Nigerians group has asked the Nigerian Senate to reject the nomination of Lauretta Onochie, Senior Special Assistant on Social Media to President Muhammadu Buhari, as National Commissioner of the Independent National Electoral Commission, representing the South-South.
In a letter to Lawan on Monday, the group said Onochie’s nomination goes contrary to the provisions of the constitution, which prohibit nomination of partisan people for the office. “In the same vein, we urge you to immediately clear Professor Sani Adams, a professor of law who is eminently qualified to be a national commissioner and other Nigerians on the list.
“We wish to draw your attention to the fact that elections in Nigerfa usually determine, to a large extent, the nation's fate. Accordingly, the Senate must be careful not to set a dangerous precedent with the confirmation of Ms. Onochie, lest a day come when the president of Nigeria may nominate his party chairman as the INEC Chairman.
Shame disgrace
'Concerned Nigerians Group' is the code name for random groups that fronts Buhari's hidden agenda. They stage counter protests & suggest stupid names like UAR 👇. Won't be surprised if this group starts calling for lifelong presidency for Buhari👀
