INEC Headquarters Should Be Named After Prof. Nwosu – AEAN

The Nigerian government has been told to name Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, national headquarters, Abuja after Professor Humphrey Nwosu, the brain behind the June 12, 1993 Presidential election.

This plea was made on Saturday in Abuja by the Association for Ethical Awareness in Nigeria, AEAN.

According to the group, INEC national headquarters should be known as “Prof Humphrey Nwosu House.”

After hailing PMB for making June 12 our Democracy Day and for honoring the late Moshood Kashimawo, MKO Abiola as the winner of June, 1993 presidential election, the group urged the President to make sure all Nigerians are treated equally regardless of their tribes.

Chairman of the group, Hon. Franklyn Nsa Effiong had this to say, “as a father and the leader of our beloved country Nigeria, you must love all your children irrespective of tribe or religions.”

“Nigerians are aware of the role Prof. Humphrey Nwosu played to ensure the success and reality of June 12 presidential election even when the Association for Better Nigerians, ABN, stopped the collation and announcement of the election result through court order delivered by late Justice Ikpeme.

“We, the members of the Association for Ethical Awareness in Nigeria call for equity and fairness in Nigerian government when handling issues of national unity, oneness and progress of our dear country.”

Speaking on behalf of the Chairman, the spokesman of the group, Hon. Mohammed Kabiru also said, “we call on the federal government of Nigeria to immortalize and name INEC national headquarters, Abuja after Prof. Humphrey Nwosu as Prof Humphrey Nwosu House.”
