The Acting Chairman, Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), Mrs. Amina Zakari has said she is capable of handling the activities of the commission, especially as she is not oblivious of its challenges and successes.
She said aside being an INEC staff for long, working closely with the former chairman, Prof. Attahiru Jega, had given her much exposure about the job, adding that what was needed at the moment was the will to build on the achievements made so far.
In her words: “There shouldn’t be any problem, I have been part of the process, I know the problems, challenges and have equally seen the successes, what is remaining is to build on the success and to try and tackle the outstanding challenges.” Zakari said though the bulk of the work had been done by her former boss as regards election management, there was still much to be done and improved on.
She, however, added that the work could only be done successfully with the support of Nigerians.
“Basically, with the co-operation of all, the support of staff and the people of Nigeria, we should be able to do the job, pending when a new commission would be put in place,” she said.
