INEC Vows To Pursue Okorocha's Case To Supreme Court

The Independent National Electoral Commission INEC, has vowed to pursue the case of recovering the certificate of return issued to the former Governor of Imo, Rochas Okorocha to the Supreme Court.
The Chairman of INEC, Prof. Mahmood Yakubu, disclosed this at a quarterly meeting with Abuja Bureau Chiefs and media executives, in Abuja on Wednesday.
He said “I don’t see how logistics can mar the elections in Bayelsa and Kogi to the extent that we have to postpone. It has to be some major issues for that to happen.”
He noted that Okorocha’s case went unchallenged in the law court.
Yakubu said “politicians will no longer mobilise voters or even buy votes during any election but will prefer to buy guns and move to collation centres and get declarations made in their favour.”
