Professor Joash Ojo Amupitan Poised to Lead INEC as Yakubu Steps Down
Professor Joash Ojo Amupitan is likely to emerge as the new INEC chair following the resignation of Professor Yakubu. A source from the presidency revealed that Amupitan is a top contender among three potential replacements.
This decision came after Yakubu handed over to an acting national commissioner. The meeting with Resident Electoral Commissioners in Abuja aimed to ensure a smooth transition for the upcoming electoral activities.
Amupitan's leadership skills and experience position him as a strong candidate for the role.
