Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, Professor Attahiru Jega, has formally bowed out as the Chairman of the electoral body, Tuesday.
Jega, who was appointed by former President, Goodluck Jonathan in 2010, has served out his 5 year statutory tenure as the chairman of the Commission.
The former Vice Chancellor of Bayero University, Kano, had insisted that he would not seek a second term in office even if he is offered the opportunity, saying he has done his bit. He reasoned that there were other well qualified people in the country who should be allowed to contribute their own quota.
Professor Jega officially handed over leadership to the commission’s National Commissioner, Ambassador Mohammad Wali (pictured top left), on Tuesday.
