Despite the raging criticism trailing the appointment of a national commissioner in the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), Mrs. Amina Zakari, as head of the body’s committee to coordinate the collation of presidential election results next month, the commission yesterday insisted that she would not be replaced.

Mr. Rotimi Oyekanmi, Chief Press Secretary (CPS) to INEC Chairman, Prof. Mahmood Yakubu, also told The Guardian: “Mrs. Amina Zakari’s choice as the chair of the ad hoc Committee on National Collation Centre will not affect the credibility of the 2019 general elections and the integrity of the Commission in any way.
