Breaking News: H.E. Chief Olu Falae, H.E. Frank Ukonga, and Dr Tanko Yinusa storms INEC Stakeholder’s Summit in Abuja.

At INEC stakeholders’ summit held recently in the Electoral Institute in Abuja it was a gathering of the shakers and movers of the Nigerian political turfs.

Most of the Chairmen and Secretaries of the 68 political parties in Nigeria attended and one of the most crucial issues was the 2019 election sequence impasse between INEC and the Senate.

Earlier this year the Independent National Electoral Commission INEC came out with the 2019 time table which was widely acceptable to many but a twist came when the Senate passed a bill altering the 2019 election sequence making the presidential election the last to be held.

In the presentation of H.E. Chief Olu Falae to other chairmen of political parties the erudite sage and leader of the Afenifere – the pan Yoruba association of over 70 million peoples of the Yoruba Race in Nigeria and the Diaspora, a former Minister for Finance and Secretary to the Federal government of Nigeria and also a former Presidential candidate and currently the National Chairman of SDP- Social Democratic Party- H.E. Chief Olu falae advised that the Presidential polls should come last to stop the bandwagon voting effect were most states and LGA votes for party of the winner of the presidential election so as not to be in opposition..This had always somehow shortchanged the other political parties and does not allow the best and most capable to be elected to power…

Similarly Dr Tanko Yinusa, the National Chairman of NCP and former National Chairman of IPAC- Inter Party Advisory Council and an erudite intelligentsia argued in support of Chief Olu Falae’s observations and supported that the presidential polls be held last in the sequence of 2019 presidential polls.

H.E Prince Frank Ukonga the National Chairman of DA- Democratic Alternative Party in his contribution blasted the State Assemblies and governors not in support of the Local Government Autonomy bill and chided the governors on the recent dysfunctional status of the conduct of Local Government Elections where the incumbent governor through the appointed State Electoral Commission carts away all the councillorship and Chairmanship positions in their territories to the detriment of other political parties..This he said is most unfair to the newly registered political parties who  would be eying winning councillorship or chairmanship of some of the 776 LGA in the Republic, He appealed to INEC Chairman Prof. Mahmud Yakubu to do all within his powers to check the excesses of State Electoral Commissions.
