Oyogist has learned that the Nigerian Senate on Tuesday cancelled off the nomination of Ms Lauretta Onochie as a National Commissioner of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).

The Senate also called off the nomination of Professor Sani Mohammad Adam (North Central).

The Chairman of the senate Committee, Senator Kabiru Gaya said the Committee rejected the nomination of Onochie because there is already a National Commissioner of INEC, Mrs May Agbamuche, representing Delta State.

Recall the former INEC chariman, Jega has urged the Nigerian senate to reject Onochie’s nomination as INEC commissioner following series of disputes.

Jega urged President Buhari to withdraw Onochie’s nomination and replace her with another reputable individual from her state.
