Certificates of Return will be issued to the governors-elect, their deputies, and state assembly members-elect on Wednesday and Thursday next week, according to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).
This comes after INEC Chairman Prof. Mahmood Yakubu denied ownership of the property attacked by several youths in video footage that circulated on social media.
In a statement issued yesterday, the commission’s National Commissioner and Chairman of the Information and Voter Education Committee, Mr. Festus Okoye, said specific dates for the issuance of the certificates would be communicated to those elected by the Resident Electoral Commissioners (RECs) and Administrative Secretaries of the various states.
Meanwhile, INEC Chairman Prof. Mahmood Yakubu has denied ownership of the property attacked by some youths in a viral video clip.
Angry adolescents, mostly speaking in Hausa, can be seen in the video storming into the premises welding sticks.
Nevertheless, in a statement made yesterday by his Chief Press Secretary, Rotimi Oyekanmi, Yakubu stated that he does not own the property in question in Bauchi or anywhere else in the globe.
