Amupitan’s official assignment outside Abuja sparks INEC chatter

My people, una hear the latest gist about our INEC chair? Prof. Joash Amupitan don vanish from Abuja like ghost wey no wan show face.

INEC finally break am, say the man dey on official assignment outside the capital. The statement drop like hot suya for market, and everybody start to ask: wetin be this assignment? Some talk say e dey do some high‑level stakeholder meeting, others claim e dey run for personal matter.

Now, as sure guys wey dey follow every political beat, I dey wonder if this move na strategic distraction or genuine duty. The timing come just as the voter registration saga dey heat up, and opposition parties dey ready to comot body for the next election.

Timeline released by INEC

My own take? If Amupitan really dey on assignment, e better make INEC drop more details – which ministry, which state, how e go affect the upcoming voter roll. No be small thing to keep the public in dark while the country dey prepare for another big vote.

Meanwhile, we go keep our ears open, our phones ready, and our gossip wheels turning. Because for Naija, any movement by a high‑ranking official na material for the next gbedu of conversation. Who knows, maybe the next press release go finally tell us why the chairperson dey comot from the capital.
