The INEC electoral officer in Bokkos Local Government of Plateau, Salihu Adamu Musa, has apologised over the “shameful” behaviour of a drunk Returning Officer deployed to the area.
According to The Guardian, Musa was being queried by APC Collation Officer in Pankshin, Mr Emmanuel Bok, who wanted to know why the returning officer deployed to the area was not the person declaring the results of elections for Bokkos.
Musa, in his explanation, told the party agents, observers and INEC officials that the Returning Officer, a university lecturer, was drunk on Sunday and was sacked when he could not perform his duty.
