Kogi gov poll: IPAC stages walkout at INEC’s stakeholders meeting FridayFeeling
The Inter-Party Advisory Council, IPAC, on Friday, walked out of the stakeholders meeting of the Kogi State Independent Electoral Commission, INEC.
The spokesman for the Council, Ibrahim Itodo, said that the walkout was to protest the continued stay of the REC in spite of a request for his removal. According to him, all efforts to get the REC’s attention always fell on deaf ears “as he always asked us to provide evidence of any sharp practices.”IPAC and the Conference of Nigerian Political Parties, CNPP in the state had last week called for the immediate removal of the state REC.
“The REC has his second office in Government House, where he frequently hibernates in utter disregard for decorum, calling and tenets of the office he occupied as an unbiased umpire.
