The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has said it is considering moving sensitive election materials from the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN).
This followed the presidential ambition of the CBN Governor, Godwin Emefiele.
INEC Chairman, Mahmood Yakubu made this know while responding to a question on the political ambition and partisanship of the Central Bank Governor, Godwin Emefiele.
Speaking on the development, Yakubu said the commission might be forced to find another arrangement for the handling of sensitive materials.
”I understand the context in which the question is asked. But you should also understand the context in which events are unfolding.
“As we speak, our director, litigation and prosecution is in court. There is a case in court. We have been invited to state our own side of the story. We usually refrain from talking about such issues because there is essentially subjudice.
“But we have already started talking about what alternatives are available to us in case we need to change the arrangement for the handling of sensitive materials.
“We are aware of the situation. We will watch the situation. We still have nine months before the next general elections. Things may be addressed before then,” he said.
