Following the appointment by President Bola Tinubu and approval by the Senate, the Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), Mahmood Yakubu has sworn-in nine Resident Electoral Commissioners (RECs).
The newly appointed RECs were sworn-in at the Commission’s headquarters in Abuja on Monday.
Yakubu administered the oath of office to them at the last quarterly meeting of the Commission, where the chairman reviewed INEC’s activities alongside all the RECs in the Commission.
The meeting was the first of its kind since the conduct of the recent off-cycle governorship elections in Kogi, Bayelsa and Imo states.
The nine new RECs were deployed to Kebbi, Borno, Edo, Akwa Ibom, Kaduna, Kwara, Ondo, Ekiti, and Nasarawa states.
