Femi Falana, a Senior Advocate of Nigeria and human rights activist has rebuked the actions of President Buhari after he nominated his aide, Lauretta Onochie as a member of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).
He described Lauretta Onochie as an “unrepentant member” of the APC who has “consistently attacked members of other political parties.
Falana also pointed out that one of the criteria provided in the Constitution to determine who is fit for the position is that nominated persons must not be partisan.
The statement reads in full;
“MEMBERS AND SUPPORTERS OF POLITICAL PARTIES ARE NOT QUALIFIED TO BE INEC COMMISSIONERS
In view of the desire of President Muhammadu Buhari to fill some vacancies in the Independent National Electoral Commission it has become pertinent to draw the attention of the Council of State and the Senate to the following provisions of the Constitution:
From the foregoing, it is crystal clear that a card-carrying member of a registered political party or a well known supporter of a particular political party is constitutionally disqualified from the membership of the Independent National Electoral Commission. As an unrepentant member of the ruling party Mrs Lauretta Onochie has consistently attacked members of other political parties. To that extent, she is partisan and therefore not qualified to be a member of the Independent National Electoral Commission”.
