The Lagos Resident Electoral Commissioner, REC, Mr. Olusegun Agbaje has denied reports that the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, will be working with the head of Lagos Parks and Garden Mr. Musiliu Akinsanya also known as MC Oluomo, a chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC).
Agbaje who described the reports as nonsensical ascribed
Nigeria’s major challenge to do-or-die politicians that are all out to
undermine the electoral process but noted that he would never jeopardize the
image of the electoral umpire.
Agbake while speaking at a stakeholder
meeting at the INEC’s head office in Lagos on Thursday, insisted that he
doesn’t toil with his integrity.
In his words:
“Lagos has had its share of election violence, we cannot afford it again. We must work together for peaceful elections in Lagos.
The former INEC chairman Professor Atahirru Jega knows me well likewise
the incumbent INEC chairman Professor Mahmood Yakubu.
I have nothing to do the Lagos head of Parks
and Gardens.
Electoral Officers , EOs of each local government would be in charge of
vehicles that would convey ad-hoc staff and electoral material materials to the
polling units, not me.
People don’t know me. I am from a very credible family and I will never
do anything that would jeopardize the image of INEC or make Nigerians think. I
will never be part of it.”
