‘Mahmood Yakubu Has Polluted And Grossly Undermined Electoral Process’ – Obasanjo

Former Nigerian President Olusegun Obasanjo criticized the Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), Mahmood Yakubu, in his new book "Nigeria Past Future." Obasanjo accused Yakubu of polluting and grossly undermining the electoral process in Nigeria. The ex-president expressed concerns about the compromised judiciary in Nigeria, stating that corruption among judges has turned the courts into centers of corruption rather than justice.
