The Senate on Wednesday confirmed the 19 Residents' electoral commissioners whose names were sent by President Muhammadu Buhari
The nominees who were confirmed are Ibrahim Abdullah (Adamawa); Obo Effanga (cross river); Umar Ibrahim (Taraba); Agboke Olaleke (Ogun); Samuel Egwu (Kogi), Onyeka Ugochi (Imo); Muhammad Bashir (Sokoto) and Ayobami Salami from Oyo state and many others.
The senate committee on the independent national electoral commission chaired by senator Kabiru Gaya (APC kano south) had, last week, screened the nominees behind closed doors.
The nominees assured the committee of their non-partisanship, and non-membership of any political party, and promised to discharge their responsibilities diligently according to the laid down laws.
However, some civil society organisations kicked against the nomination of persons alleged to be members of the ruling all progressives congress
The group in a statement signed by its chairman, described the nomination as a strategy to influence the process and outcome of the election in favour of the APC.
