The presidency has debunked the rumors that the INEC Chairman, Mahmood Yakubu has been replaced, describing it as ‘fake news.’
A viral WhatsApp message had indicated that Mahmood was sacked and replaced with one Prof. Bashir Olamilekan.
But the Senior Special Adviser to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu on Digital Media and New Media, O’tega Ogra, said, “Disregard any fake news making the rounds about the replacement of the INEC Chairman.
“Any such announcement will come from the SGF’s office or the any other official source.”
Also the Chief Press Secretary (CPS) to the INEC Chairman, Mr Rotimi Oyekanmi, simply said: “Please, disregard. It is not true.”
Yakubu, who is rounding off his second tenure in office, is expected to exit the system towards the end of the year.
Prof. Mahmood will complete his second tenure before the end of this year.
