The Peoples Democratic Party yesterday cautioned the Senate not to test the will of the people by pushing through the confirmation of President Muhammadu Buhari’s aide, Mrs. Lauretta Onochie, as a national commissioner of the Independent National Electoral Commission .The PDP accused the Senate President, Senator Ahmad Lawan, of testing the will of the people by his failure to reject Onochie’s nomination as demanded by Nigerians.

It added: “Our party is appalled that Senator Lawan, who swore to protect the constitution, will brazenly debase its clear provision in paragraph 14 of the 3rd schedule by sending a card-carrying member of a political party for clearance as INEC national commissioner.” It said: “If he meant well, Senator Lawan ought to, upon receiving the obnoxious nomination, immediately return same to President Buhari and advise him to send a replacement.
