Resign, You’re an Embarrassment – Okorie Tells INEC Chairman, Yakubu

A former national chairman of the All-Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), Chekwas Okorie, has called for the resignation of the Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), Mahmood Yakubu.

Okorie stated that Yakubu had already been found guilty of contempt of court for refusing to obey a court order to recognise the current National Chairman of APGA, Edozie Njoku.

VOP News reports that the Supreme Court had declared Njoku authentic National Chairman, however, INEC reportedly failed to obey the court order.

Okorie shared his reservations while speaking to reporters at the Court of Appeal premises, where he and other top members of the party had gone to submit a petition at the weekend.
