Citing Logistic Issue, INEC Postpones Election In Plateau Ward
The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has postponed the governorship and state house of assembly elections in Butura ward in Bokkos LGA of Plateau.
Announcing the development on Saturday, Oliver Agundu, the state INEC resident electoral commissioner (REC), said the postponement was due to a logistics problem.
Agundu said election materials such as ballot papers meant for the ward were taken to another LGA in error.
The electoral staff also said in order not to disenfranchise members of the community, the election in the area would now hold on March 19 (Sunday).
He apologised for the inconveniences caused by the postponement and called on members of the community to come out in their numbers to exercise their franchise.
