INEC asks police to prosecute Yunusa-Ari for his behaviour in Adamawa poll

On Sunday, April 16, 2023, Hudu Yunusa-Ari, the Resident Electoral Commissioner for Adamawa State illegally declared Binani, the governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) as the winner of the April 15 supplementary election in the state.

Yunusa-Ari made the declaration while the results of the election were still being collated.

The development prompted INEC to suspend the commissioner and also declared his declaration invalid.
