The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), led by its Chairman, Prof. Mahmood Yakubu, on Friday 2nd May, 2025, paid a solemn condolence visit to the family of the late National Commissioner, Maj. Gen. Modibbo Alkali (Rtd), who passed away on Monday 28 April, 2025.
The INEC Chairman was accompanied by the full leadership of the Commission; National Commissioners, Directors, the Secretary to the Commission, and Senior Aides to the family residence in Kaduna to honour the memory of a man widely regarded as one of INEC’s most dedicated and hardworking members.
Until his passing, Alkali served as Chairman of the Commission’s Appointment, Promotion and Discipline Committee (APDC).
He played a pivotal role in INEC’s strategic planning on electoral security and was instrumental in overseeing the safe deployment of personnel and materials, particularly in high-risk areas during elections.
The visit concluded with prayers for the peaceful repose of the late General’s soul.
Maj. Gen. Alkali is survived by his wives, children, and grandchildren. He has since been laid to rest in accordance with Islamic rites.
