    As chairman of Nigeria’s Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) between June 2010 and June 2015, Professor Attahiru Muhammadu Jega presided over the preparation and conduct of the country’s successful and widely acclaimed 2011 and 2015 general elections.
    Under Professor Attahiru Jega’s stewardship the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) organised peaceful elections in 2015 that, for the first time in Nigerian history, saw an opposition candidate defeat the incumbent president.
    Having been appointed to chair INEC in 2010, when it was widely perceived as “fraudulent and corrupt”, Jega left the Commission five years later with its reputation within Nigeria and abroad greatly enhanced.
    Professor Jega officially stepped down as Chairman of the INEC on June 30 and has said he will return to academia. While at CSIS, Jega reflected on his tenure at the INEC and said that the commission had been significantly developed as an institution over the last five years and humbly gave credit to all its staff and commissioners.
