Lawmaker Recall: INEC to release voter register to constituents

60
 The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) would on April 24 release the voter register to Hong constituents in Adamawa for the recall process of their lawmaker in the state legislature.
The Resident Electoral Commissioner (REC) in the state, Alhaji Kassim Gaidam, disclosed the commission’s intention on Wednesday while addressing newsmen in Yola.
The constituents had submitted a letter demanding the recall of Alhaji Mamman Barguma, their representative at the House of Assembly on the allegation that he had failed them.
Gaidam explained  that the register was voluminous, and required him to append signature on each page.
He said the process for the recall was a lawful one, adding that the commission would comply with the constitutional provisions in that regard.
He, however, advised aggrieved parties to adopt Alternative Dispute Resolution mechanism for the sake of peace.
