Former Oyo State Governor, Mr Victor Olunloyo has called for the immediate resignation of INEC chairman, Prof. Attahiru Jega.
In an exclusive interview with Channels Television in Ibadan, the Oyo
State capital, Mr. Olunloyo opined that Jega’s resignation will pave
way for better reforms as several attempts have been made to discredit
him and his office.
He urged the electoral body to desist from using the Ekiti 2014
governorship poll as a template for credible elections in Nigeria,
insisting that the election was tainted with series of malpractices.
The elder statesman further stressed the need to conduct credible
elections starting with sincerity in PVC distribution, and holding
politicians responsible for their mistakes.
Meanwhile, the Senator representing Oyo South Senatorial District,
Sen. Olufemi Lanleyin, in a swift reaction negated Olunloyo’s
submission, describing Jega as a credible professional who must be
encouraged to conduct a credible poll.
