Professor Mahmood Yakubu has officially handed over the reins of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to May Agbamuche, who will serve as the Acting National Chairman.
Agbamuche, the longest-serving National Commissioner within the commission, assumed the role following Professor Yakubu’s announcement on Tuesday during a meeting with Resident Electoral Commissioners at INEC’s Abuja headquarters.
Yakubu urged all commissioners and directors to extend their full support to Agbamuche as she leads the commission until a substantive chairman is appointed.
