The APC senators in the national assembly alleged that Professor Attahiru Jega, the chairman of INEC, will be directed to embark on terminal leave next week. According to a report by The Cable, the former governor of Benue state and senate minority leader, " the head of service would direct Jega to proceed on terminal leave next week.
The senators condemned the attempt to remove the INEC chairman under any guise, saying his removal would be tantamount to “subversion of the system”. “Only dishonest politicians fear Jega as chairman of INEC,” Akume said.
“We have received information that next week Jega will be served a letter from the head of service directing him to proceed on terminal leave. We wonder why the government wants to tamper with the current arrangement of INEC.”
