The head of the Odua Peoples Congress, OPC, Otunba Gani Adams has called on President Jonathan to sack the INEC Chairman, Professor Attahiru Jega. The OPC leader described Jega as a man who has another motive for the forthcoming elections, and so should be sacked now. He made the statements today, Sunday March 8, while speaking on his organisation's Eledumare Festival in Lagos.
"I Otunba Gani Adams is using this forum to call for immediate sack, removal or retirement of Professor Attahiru Jega, the chairman of INEC on the basis of PVC distribution, introduction of card reader and creation of 30000 bogus and fraudulent polling units in the northern part of Nigeria against the southern part. We have not heard how card readers contributed or added value to any major election in the world. To me, it's an attempt cleverly being injected by Jega to cause delay, confuse voters and prevent majority of voters in exercising their franchise on that day".
He therefore called for his resignation and asked the Federal Government to begin a search for a new INEC chair.
"The new chair can come from anywhere. He can come from the north or south. I'm not choosing for the President, but Jega should go" he said.
