*Asks NASS to delete section barring political appointees

President Muhammadu Buhari has urged the National Assembly to urgently delete section 84(12) of the newly assented Electoral Act.

The president in a letter addressed to the Senate, Ahmad Lawan, and read at the plenary asked the federal parliament to consider the outright deletion of Section 84 (12).

The section has to do with the resignation of political appointees before party primaries.

The president stated that the provision amounted to the disenfranchisement of political appointees.
