Former Deputy National Publicity Secretary of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Timi Frank has called on the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) chairman, Prof. Mahmood Yakubu to resign as a matter of urgency.
Frank, in a statement issued Monday, also called on President Muhammadu Buhari to do the needful by relieving him of his position if he fails to resign for conducting the worst-ever rigged election in the history of Nigeria.
Frank called on President Muhammadu Buhari, in a statement, to relieve Yakubu of his position for going ahead to announce a winner in the highly compromised and rigged presidential election in Nigeria that saw All Progressives Congress candidate, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu emerge as the president-elect.

Frank said, “We are supposed to be the light and example in Africa but with the dismal conduct of INEC and its officials during the last Presidential and National Assembly elections, other countries in the continent absolutely have nothing to learn from us because of what Yakubu and INEC have done.”
Frank added that, “Nigerians have lost confidence in Yakubu. His words and his promises mean nothing. He has started again by promising free and fair governorship and State Assembly elections but Nigerians are no fools because they know he will do exact the opposite.

“Prof. Yakubu has shown himself to be a practical disgrace to Nigeria and has brought shame, disgrace and embarrassment to Nigerians in the global community. Today, Nigeria is now a laughing stock among members of the international community.”
