‘Why are you meeting APC chairman on official duty?’ — VeryDarkMan slams Amupitan
Social media activist VeryDarkMan has slammed INEC Chairman, Professor Joash Amupitan, over his meeting with the United Kingdom chapter chairman of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Tunde Doherty, during an official engagement abroad.
VeryDarkMan spoke amid criticism of Amupitan after reports circulated that the electoral chief had worn an APC-branded cap during his UK visit.
However, the activist said he watched the footage and did not see Amupitan wearing the cap, clarifying that it was Doherty who appeared in the video wearing the APC-branded headwear.
“I watched the video carefully and I didn’t see where the INEC chairman was wearing APC cap,” he said.

Despite the clarification, VeryDarkMan questioned why the chairman of Nigeria’s electoral commission would meet with a ruling party chieftain while on official duty, arguing that such an association could raise doubts about the commission’s neutrality.
He said the public’s concerns were understandable, insisting that the issue was not simply whether Amupitan wore the party cap, but whether his conduct could undermine confidence in the electoral body.
