Buhari approves suspension of Adamawa REC over election fiasco

RIPPLES 

President Muhammadu Buhari has approved the suspension of the Adamawa State Residential Electoral Commissioner, Hudu Yunusa Ari.

Yunusa-Ari stirred controversy on Sunday after he declared the All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate, Aisha “Binani” Dahiru as the winner of the state’s governorship election with results in only 10 out of the 21 local government areas of the state collated by the commission.

INEC, however, declared the announcement null and void and directed the REC to stay away from election duty in the state.

The commission also reported the REC to the Federal Government for possible sanction for his infractions.
