The new Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), Prof. Joash Amupitan, on Thursday assumed office at the commission’s headquarters in Abuja.
Amupitan arrived at about 2:40 p.m. in the company of the Acting Chairman, Mrs May Agbamuche-Mbu, national commissioners and the secretary to the commission, shortly after he was sworn-in at the presidential villa.
He is expected to hold his first meeting with INEC directors and management staff members shortly after preliminary assumption of office protocols.
Amupitan, a legal scholar from Kogi, is a Professor of Law at the University of Jos, where he began his academic career in 1989. (NAN)(www.nannews.ng)
