“INEC Chairman must go…..” - Northern Group demands Amupitan's removal

Amupitan and the Credibility of the 2027 Elections: By Salihu Tanko Yakasai In any election, the most important stakeholder is the electoral umpire. Whoever is chosen to lead the electoral body carries a heavy burden, particularly in how key players and observers perceive the independence of that umpire, whether he will be fair and just or take sides with those who appointed him. Typically, the person appointed to head the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) is expected to ensure a level playing field for all candidates, irrespective of whether they belong to the ruling party or the opposition. Over the years in Nigeria, however, some INEC chairmen have been found wanting in the discharge of their duties. Maurice Iwu is widely regarded as one of Nigeria’s most controversial INEC chairmen, largely because the 2007 elections under his leadership were heavily criticized for irregularities and lack of credibility. Even Umaru Musa Yar'Adua, who won that election, admitted the process was flawed. While some argue he operated within a weak system, his tenure is still often seen as a low point for electoral integrity in Nigeria. If you’re looking at credibility, transparency, and public trust, his tenure is often seen as a low point for Nigeria’s electoral process. But from all indications, the current INEC chairman, Joash Amupitan, seems to be on the verge of becoming even worse than Maurice Iwu, as his tenure has been marked by one controversy after another since his appointment. 1- Religious bias allegation The current INEC chairman, Amupitan, has faced criticism over a past petition in which he reportedly raised concerns about what he described as “Christian genocide.” This has drawn objections from groups such as the Supreme Council for Islamic Affairs, who argue that such a position raises questions about his neutrality in a religiously diverse country and have called for his removal. 2- ADC leadership portal controversy While citing a court order, the INEC chairman reportedly derecognized David Mark and Rauf Aregbesola as Chairman and Secretary of the African Democratic Congress, respectively. This removal from INEC’s official portal could undermine the party’s ability to field candidates. Critics see this as a move that may disadvantage opposition parties in favor of the ruling All Progressives Congress. 3- Voter revalidation exercise concerns Another major issue was the proposed voter revalidation exercise, which was introduced close to the election timeline, which sparked backlash. Many argued that attempting to revalidate tens of millions of voters within a short period could disenfranchise many Nigerians in the 2027 general elections. Following public pressure, the commission suspended the exercise. 4- Social media partisanship allegation Questions have been raised about an alleged social media account linked to Amupitan, which contain posts supportive of the APC, and are critical of opposition movements such as the “Obidient” movement. Although he denied ownership, some online claims suggest links to personal identifiers such as an email address and phone number, leaving the issue contested. All these controversies are happening even before the elections. If Maurice Iwu is the yardstick for a poor election umpire, then by all accounts, Amupitan appears to be on track to surpass that record. If he can be perceived as this compromised before the elections, what should be expected on election day? When the credibility of an election collapses, the consequences go far beyond the ballot box. Voter turnout drops as people begin to feel their votes no longer count, and the legitimacy of whoever emerges as the winner is immediately questioned. This often fuels political tension, deepens divisions, and in some cases can trigger unrest. Ultimately, a flawed electoral process does not just produce disputed outcomes. It weakens public trust in democracy itself and makes governance far more difficult. 1/2

I walked through the Faculty of Law at Lagos State University as a student, carrying questions, ambition, and a quiet determination to become. Yesterday, I returned with a deeper understanding of what it means to give back. It was an honour to support the Law Library with a complete archive of the Judgments of the Supreme Court of Nigeria, from inception till date. I am grateful to the University Management, the Faculty of Law, the LASU Alumni, Executives and Members of the Nigerian Bar Association Badagry Branch, and all who were present to receive this gesture with such warmth and purpose. My appreciation also goes to Lawbreed Limited, led by Mr Layi Babatunde, SAN, who was ably represented by Mrs Adejoke Layi Babatunde, for their role in making this possible. To the students, this is for you. Do not just study the law. Engage it. Question it. Master it. Because the future of our profession will be shaped by those who are prepared, not just to practice the law, but to understand it deeply. And when your time comes, remember this: we rise, and we lift others with us. Cheers to a great weekend. #ProjectBar #Aarenation #LASULAWS #thefutureofthebar #AareOlumuyiwaAkinboroSAN

If you ever get into public office, tweet only when necessary. You have so many tools in your arsenal to win public affection.

INEC Chairman. It is the most honourable thing for the INEC Chairman to resign. When your integrity is in question, just resign because nothing you do will prove otherwise.

Y’all invited🤝🤝🤝
