The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) on Thursday said it will not allow the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) dictate to it how it will conduct the 2019 general elections.

Speaking in a chat with INDEPENDENT, Rotimi Oyekanmi, Chief Press Secretary (CPS), to the INEC Chairman also warned the PDP to desist from its personal attacks on one of its National Commissioners, Mrs Amina Zakari.

“What is this crazy phobia about Amina Zakari? Why is one political party paranoid about this woman? There are 12 National Commissioners in INEC, why are they singling her out always? We are not going to allow one political party to dictate to us how to manage our affairs.

“If they have any problem with Amina Zakari, they should let us know. She was appointed by former President Goodluck Jonathan under the PDP government. She was not appointed under the present dispensation. Throughout the time she was there under Jega, this same PDP did not see anything wrong with her. Every national commissioner is entitled to having a renewed term and her term was renewed.

“This woman has a family, children and yet people are just attacking her for nothing. What did she do? Would they be happy if anybody is doing this to their wives?

“The way INEC is structured, not even the INEC chairman can rig the election in favour of any political party or any candidate in this country today.

“He is incapable of doing so because the system will not allow it. So, if the INEC Chairman cannot rig, where is the national commissioner that wants to rig?”

PDO wants INEC to appoint imPatience Jonathan to replace the woman they're masturbating about.

Its clear to all Nigerians now that APC are not ready for peace one day across the nation . how can a government cannot observed the rule of law one day out of four yeas in government ? now that the government of Nigeria is for Buhari and his family lets thinks twice and vote them out let them go and rule their-self's at Duara earlier the better for Nigeria

INEC too shouldn't have appointed her into such a sensitive post given her closeness to Buhari

i wants to use this medium to urge us to be wise over what is happening. this government is self-centered .lets join hands and send this wicked people to where they belong and leave political sentiment out of this ---------------- i warned you now ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

PDP has lost the election even b4 it's conducted.

chai Atikuoooo

zoogerians, ntoor. No referendum, no election.

Oh ooooo! PDP is crying too much. Gesila Khan INEC resident electoral commissioner of Rivers state in 2015 election was from Bayelsa and related to Goodluck Jonathan.

Have PDP forgotten that during their tenure PDP bigwigs nominates who becomes resident electoral commissioner.

Any resident electoral commissioner for Edo state slot was always nominated by late Tony Aninih (Mr Fix it)

Rivers state slot was always nominated by Peter Odili all these people are PDP card carrying members.

This Mrs Amina Zakari i love this woman, a woman of substance and integrity was even appointed by PDP led government in 2011 and PMB contested that election and failed then PDP did not remember she was PMB niece.

I know too well Amina Zakari is not from Kastina and not PMB niece.

what a show of shame !!!

Can they give APC the same reply?


It's gonna be tough.

Pd pigs and their fellowe are CONFUSED

Same way no other political parties must dictate to you, but you (INEC) need to continue making the whole electoral process transparent devoid of anything that can put the whole electoral process in disarray.
God bless Nigerians as we go to the poll.

mehnst a few days mehn.
A few days and this mumu talk will be over.

Correct!
Pdpigz should stop interfering in INEC matter for heavens sake !

God please give us PEACE after this election.

My friend keep quiet, PDP has told you why she shouldn't be there but, do you understand what they call conflict of interest I believe you don't have that's the more reason she ought not to be in that position.

So what happened in Osun elections if one man can't not rig an election, INEC continue we are all in this Nigeria since you guys plans is to set this country on fire it will consume everyone of you families because you have refused to heed the voice of wisdom and and thrown caution to the air.

"This woman has a family, children and yet people are just attacking her for nothing. What did she do? Would they be happy if anybody is doing this to their wives?"


See INEC trying hard to play emotional blackmail on Nigerians rather than be neutral umpire in the coming election.

Yakubu is definitely working for the APC.

How can you appoint the 'daughter' of Buhari as chairperson in charge of collation of presidential election votes, in a contest that Buhari is a candidate!

There are 12 national commissioners, why make a blood relation of the APC candidate the chairperson!



This corrupt Yakubu wants to set Nigeria ablaze.

I Cant Beleive This Is Comming Out Of Inec Key Official. Well Pdp Should Not Disturb Themselve, It Is A Done Deal, Unless God Say No.

What is the correlation between what you said and the topic being discussed. What is wrong with Nigerian youths sef?

PDP is a very foolish party, under PDP INEC selected PDP members as electoral commissioners now they are falsely claiming a woman who has no biological relationship to PMB should be removed because of their she is related to PMB

But how will you appoint the family of a contestant to collate the result of the election. That’s insensitive and bias. If PDP is quiet did y’all think the Nigerian people in support of Omoyele Sowore would be quiet?

Buhari and Yakubu with Zakari you are all mad

INEC thank you for reminding PDP that you're the boss.

PDP if you're pained go hug transformer.

Next Level Please!

When PDP appointed her there, Did they not think about conflict of interest

Direct your question to the PDP who appointed her

Tell that Rotimi Oyekanmi to shut up and and stop defending an obvious perversion of the electoral body. Amina Zakari should ordinarily be retired in a sane organization given her relationship to a major contestant.

INEC has a responsibility to prove that they are incorruptible and the service of Anina Zakari will amout to conflict of interest and pervertion of coperate governance ethics.

I am almost certain that INEC intends to rig the election in favor of APC.

Do the right thing. That's all everyone is saying.

Just hope INEC is not up to something. Why the statsment.

Okay. I don't know how true but i read on Nairaland some months ago that she is a blood relation to Buhari. If true, she shouldn't be holding any sensitive position, it doesn't matter whether the system is designed to resist rigging or not. My opinion though

Yes o
