Dissatisfied with the reasons given for the postponement of the polls, a number of Nigerians are calling for the resignation of the Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), Prof. Mahmood Yakubu.
The main opposition party, the People’s Democratic Party led the call for Yakubu’s resignation in a statement reacting to the news.
We tracked reactions on social media and found that a number of Nigerians share similar sentiment as the PDP and have called for the resignation of the chairman.
Perhaps noting that this sentiment abounds, a Nigerian journalist, Kadaria Ahmed, created a poll on Twitter where she asked Nigerians if they were of the opinion that Mahmood should resign or not.
A partisan social media user also called for an outright dismissal of the INEC chairman after the polls.
