The Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, has asked the Resident Electoral Commissioner for Adamawa State, Barrister Hudu Yunusa Ari to “stay away” from the commission.
A memo dated 17 April 2023 and signed by Rose Oriaran-Anthony, Secretary to the Commission, asked the embattled REC to “stay away from the Commission’s office in Adamawa State immediately until further notice.”
The axed Adamawa REC had at the weekend announced the All Progressives Congress governorship candidate in Adamawa State, Senator Aisha Dahiru Binani as winner of the election in the North East state before the Commission headquarter voided the pronouncement as null and void.
The INEC Secretary in her memo which disclosed the suspension of Barrister
Yunusa Ari, also revealed that the Administrative Secretary has taken charge of the Commission office in Adamawa State.
The Memo entitled “Commission’s Directive to Stay away from INEC, Adamawa State,” reads in part:” I hereby convey the Commission’s decision that you (Barr. Hudu Yunusa Ari), Resident Electoral Commissioner, Adamawa State should stay away from the Commission’s office in Adamawa State immediately until further notice. The Administrative Secretary has been directed to take full charge of INEC, Adamawa State with immediate effect.
“Please, accept the assurances of the Commission’s warm regards.”
