The Ekiti State Governor, Ayodele Fayose, said on
Thursday that the appointment of Prof. Mahmoud Yakubu as Chairman of the
Independent National Electoral Commission attested to President Muhammadu
Buhari’s sectional posture in the running of the country.
The governor, who has remained one of the most
vociferous critics of the Buhari administration, said in a statement in
Ado-Ekiti that the appointment had vindicated his earlier position that the
President sees himself “as leader of the Hausa/Fulani, and not that of the
entire people of Nigeria”.
Mr. Fayose said he had expected the new INEC
Chairman to be chosen from one of the three Southern geo-political zones,
especially the South Western part of the country being the only zone yet to
produce chairman of the nation’s electoral umpire.
“Nigeria has entered a one chance bus and it remains
to be seen who will save the country from its sectional President,” Mr. Fayose
said.
