The Kwankwasiyya Movement has said that the Chairman of INEC has lost the moral authority, public trust, and institutional credibility required to continue in office, as his continued stay represents a direct risk to democratic stability and national unity.

“We therefore demand, the immediate resignation of the INEC Chairman, the urgent suspension of the voter revalidation exercise, greater judicial discipline and intervention by the National Judicial Council (NJC) to address conflicting rulings and a recommitment by all institutions to the principles of fairness, consistency, and constitutional order,” it stated.

In a statement issued by Muhammad Sale Habibu, the Kwankwasiyya Movement insisted that the recent encroachment on democratic principles by the Chairman without recourse to political and legal preservation, demands his quick exit as Chairman of the electoral umpire.

“We also call on political actors to desist from weaponising the judiciary for partisan advantage, and on civil society and the internatioal community to remain vigilant in defending Nigerians democratic space,” Habibu said.
