The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), on Friday, in Abuja said that it was yet to meet over the Supreme Court judgment that sacked five state governors and as such the status quo should be maintained.

Reacting to the ruling, the INEC Chairman, Prof Attahiru Jega, who spoke through his Chief Press Secretary, Mr Kayode Idowu, said that INEC lawyers and its legal department would meet over the judgment and advise the commission on the next step.

Asked on the fate of the elected governor of Kogi State, Captain Idris Wada and other state governorship elections as a result of the judgment, he said, “I repeat, INEC as a commission is yet to meet over the development, the decision of the commission will be made public.”

Speaking in the same vein, INEC Director of Public Affairs, Mr Emmanuel Umenger, said that the commission’s next line of action would be made public at the appropriate time.
