‘Sack RECs of annulled polls’ - Fashola

Lagos State Governor Babatunde Fashola has urged the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to sack Resident Electoral Commissioners (RECs) who signed the results of the 2007 governorship elections that were annulled by the Court of Appeal.

The governor spoke yesterday when the National Executive Council of the Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ), led by its President, Mohammed Garba, and West African Journalists Association (WAJA) officials visited him at Lagos House, Alausa Ikeja.

He said such commissioners should be prevented from getting any electoral position for next year’s polls.

He said this should be the first step for INEC to show that it can organise credible polls.
