Inec Suspends Declaration Of Results In Bayelsa ! by wales(m): 6:41am On Apr 13, 2011 |
Indications emerged on Tuesday that the Independent National Electoral Commission had suspended the further declaration of the pending results of the National Assembly polls in Bayelsa State. The commission’s Information Officer in Bayelsa State, Mrs. Priscila Sule, said in an interview with THE PUNCH in Yenagoa that the 48 hours time limit for the release of all results had expired. Sule, however, refused to speak further on the matter and urged our correspondent to seek details from the Resident Electoral Commissioner, Mr. Edwin Nwatalari. She said, “The 48 hours stipulated for the release of results have expired. We are no longer releasing results for the election. But you have to wait for the REC for details. He is in Abuja attending a meeting.” There has been controversy over the conduct of the election in the state, following allegations by opposition parties that the polls were marred by irregularies. While INEC has been able to release results for Bayelsa East Senatorial District, Nembe/Brass Federal Constituency, Kolokuma/Opopuma/Yenagoa Federal Constituency and Ogbia Federal Constituency, others are still pending. Areas where results are yet to be announced are Sagbama/Ekeremor Federal Constituency and Southern Ijaw Federal Constituency, where the commission in a statement signed by Sule said the polls were marred by malpractices. The commission had also in the statement withdrawn the result of Bayelsa West Senatorial District it earlier announced on the grounds of widespread irregularities. The Peoples Democratic Party cleared all the seats declared so far. http://www.punchng.com/Articl.aspx?theartic=Art20110413692378 |
