Chairman of DA blast State Governors over dysfunctional trends in LGA Elections
@ INEC Stakeholders’ Meeting:
The National Chairman of DA- Democratic Alternative Party in
his contributions to vexing matters arising in the INEC Stakeholders’ Meeting
held at the Electoral Institute in Abuja chided the State governors over the
dysfunctional trends in the Local government elections in the country where a
sitting governor who appoints the State Independent Electoral Commission wins
all the seats of Chairmanship and Councillorship in all the LGA in the state.
“This undemocratic trends is dangerous and counterproductive and would not
allow for the entrenchment of genuine democratic dispensation in the grass root
levels of the 3 tier of governance in the Republic..besides this is unfair to
newly registered political parties who normally should eye winning Chairmanship
and councillorship elections in some of
the 776 LGA in Nigeria as point de entrée into the schemes of governance in the
Republic…” He said
“This incumbent governors/party takes it all syndromes- if not
checked could lead to dictatorship and anarchy.” The amiable Prince of Kukuruku
Principalities and Powers H.E. Prince Frank Ukonga finally appeal to INEC
Chairman Prof. Mahmud Yakubu to do all within his powers to check the excesses
of State Electoral Commissions established by state governors’ but uses the
structures of INEC Nationwide to conduct LGA Polls.
