Why chairman Is Trending Today?

Mahmood Yakubu, the outgoing chairman of Nigeria's Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), has stepped down after two terms. In his resignation letter to President Bola Tinubu, Yakubu cited personal reasons for his decision. Following Yakubu's exit, Justice Retired Mrs. May Agbamuche-Mbu has been appointed as the acting INEC chairman. In recognition of Yakubu's decade-long service, Tinubu has conferred a national honour on him. The former INEC boss' tenure has been marked by democratic consolidation, and his performance has been commended by Tinubu. However, his departure has also sparked discussions about his successor and potential challenges facing the commission.
