The Labour Party (LP) has called for the removal and prosecution of the Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) Mahmood Yakubu, over the alleged poor conduct of the 25 February presidential elections in Nigeria.
The Director General of the LP Presidential Campaign Council, Akin Osuntokun, made the call during a press conference at the party’s campaign headquarters in Abuja on Thursday.
Mr Osuntokun, among other demands, also requested a forensic financial investigation be conducted on all expenditures and donations received by the electoral commission before, during, and after the polls.
This, he said, is in addition to the N300 billion appropriated from the national purse as well as other funds and materials received from International donor agencies.
