Breaking: Tinubu asks senate to sack 3 INEC REC

President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has formally requested the Senate to approve the dismissal of three suspended Resident Electoral Commissioners (RECs) from the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).
The affected officials—Ike Uzochukwu (Abia), Hudu Yunusa-Ari (Adamawa), and Nura Ali (Sokoto)—were suspended over alleged misconduct during the 2023 general elections.
Tinubu’s request was conveyed in a letter read by Senate President Godswill Akpabio during Wednesday’s plenary session. The president noted that the suspensions had been enforced before his administration began and urged the Senate to expedite action on their formal removal.
Additionally, Tinubu is expected to submit names of new nominees to fill the vacant positions soon.
