U.S. Prof  Hanke  described  INEC Boss as Incompetent & Corrupt, says ‘Nigeria election is most flawed in history’

Prof. Steve Hanke, a well respected professor of applied economics at the Johns Hopkins University and senior fellow at Cato institute has blasted the recent Nigerian presidential election  of February 25^th as “one of the most FLAWED election in history “ In his earlier tweet, he described “Nigeria’s electoral commission and its chairman Mahmood Yakubu, INCOMPETENCE & CORRUPTION are the name of the game.” He further said that “Nigeria remains a “FAILED STATE.”

In his tweet account today, he wrote: “In the recent presidential election, polling stations were marked by violence, delays, & allegations of tampering. You can thank electoral commission chair Mahmood Yakubu & Sleepy Pres. Buhari for one of the MOST FLAWED elections in history. If Bola Tinubu victory is challenged, the courts should take a hard look”

Nigeria’s presidential election draws to a close, with Bola Tinubu declared the victor amidst cries of vote rigging. When it comes to Nigeria’s electoral commission and its chairman Mahmood Yakubu, INCOMPETENCE & CORRUPTION are the name of the game. https://t.co/k1yowS2hDW
