PDP, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), has rejected the appointment of Amina Zakari as head the collation centre for 2019 elections by INEC.

okay understands that the PDP are rejecting the appointment of Amina Zakari because she’s a niece of President Muhammadu Buhari.

The PDP reacting in a statement made available to okay by Kola Ologbondiyan, the party’s Director, Media & Publicity, said INEC Chairman has shown that he has been compromised, adding that if he (Yakubu) wants a peaceful presidential election, he should, with the speed of light, reverse himself on the appointment.

Ologbondiyan said in the statement: “While Prof. Mahmood Yakubu can no longer be trusted to conduct the 2019 general election, it is public knowledge that Mrs Amina Zakari, the INEC Director in charge of Operations and ICT, is a direct blood relation of Mr President and as such, we believe that she cannot be an impartial arbiter in an election involving her uncle.”
