Rotimi Oyekanmi, Chief Press Secretary to INEC Chairman, dismissed calls for Agu’s removal, citing a lack of evidence for the allegations.
He disclosed this information during his appearance on Channels TV Politics Today on Wednesday.
His words: “The REC will conduct the election. We don’t have any reason to remove her from there, and we don’t have any evidence that implicates her or proves any allegation that is being alleged at this time.
“The Commission takes its responsibility seriously, and we don’t joke with the conduct of elections. When there are complaints against our officers, we also don’t joke with complaints, but you must provide evidence that our officers are culpable.
“As far as we are concerned, we haven’t seen anything to implicate the Resident Electoral Commissioner for Imo State.”
Oyekanmi promised that INEC will be fair in the state’s election for both political parties and voters.
“The assurance we are giving to all political parties is that we are not going to allow any pandering towards any interest in this election; our interest is to conduct free, fair, and credible elections,” he said.
Kanyi Daily recalls that the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) warned the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) against any attempt to rig the governorship election in Imo State.
