The president-elect, Olumide Akpata, and eight others who emerged winners in the elections were presented their Certificates of Return at the NBA national secretariat in Abuja, preparatory to their inauguration on August 27.
Tawo, who expressed concerns about disunity in the NBA, noted that there was no need for any ill-will or disaffection within the association. Congratulating the newly elected officials, Tawo urged them not to see their elections as an avenue for personal aggrandizement. Although the election was characterised by disputes over the verified voters’ list, with a presidential candidate, Adesina, calling for the cancellation of the polls in the middle of the exercise, Taidi said it was a model which the Independent National Electoral Commission could learn from in preparation for the upcoming governorship election in Edo State.
