Professor Mahmood Yakubu has transferred leadership of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to May Agbamuche, who will serve as Acting National Chairman.
Agbamuche, the longest-serving National Commissioner, assumed the role following Yakubu’s announcement on Tuesday during a meeting with Resident Electoral Commissioners at INEC headquarters in Abuja.
Yakubu urged commissioners and directors to support Agbamuche until a substantive chairman is appointed.
