The Independent National Electoral Commission should be allowed to be truly independent, Prof Mahmood Yakubu wants to do the right thing, the commission should be given total independence.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He urged Nigerians to rally around and resist what he described as a satanic decision by the Nigerian senate.<\/p>\n<p>Speaking, the Edo State Chairman of Action Alliance, Engr. Israel Iyobosa Goubadia said Nigerians have seen our elders rule in the past ,but the result had not been the best, therefore the clamour for youths and women.<\/p>\n<p>He maintained that AA is hopeful that Solomon-David Okanigbuan will take Nigeria to the promised land.<\/p>\n<p>Also, speaking, the presidential hopeful, Engr Solomo-David Okanigbuan, thanked the party for accepting him, and said what attracted him was the ideology of the party which tends to accommodate women and youths. He said his vision for Nigeria was to change the narrative and make Nigeria a prosperous nation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Nigeria.
