INDEPENDENT NATIONAL ELECTORAL COMMISSION

PRESS RELEASE

SUSPENSION OF RE-RUN ELECTIONS IN ENUGU SOUTH, KUNCHI/TSANYAWA AND TWO POLLING UNITS IN IKONO/INI

The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) announces the suspension of ongoing re-run elections in specific constituencies due to disruptions, irregularities and abduction of election officials. The affected areas are as follows:

Ikono/Ini Federal Constituency, Akwa Ibom State

Suspension of elections in two Polling Units (Village Hall, EdemUrua 003 in Ini LGA and Village Hall Mbiabong Ikot Udo 003 in Ikono LGA) where all election materials were carted away by hoodlums.

Enugu South 1 State Constituency, Enugu State

Suspension of elections in all eight Polling Units where the original results sheets were not available for inspection by voters before the commencement of polls.

Kunchi/Tsanyawa State Constituency, Kano State

Suspension of elections in all ten Polling Units in Kunchi LGA due to invasion, vandalization, and disruption by thugs.

The decision of the Commission aligns with the provisions of Section 24(3) of the Electoral Act, 2022. Further necessary measures for the affected constituencies will be announced after the Commission's meeting on Monday.

INEC invites the security agencies to investigate the incidents, while the Commission commits to thoroughly interrogating any breaches involving its officials.

This thread will reveal how decent an average Nairalander is, whether they can hold an argument, especially political, without resulting to insults.

Let's see....

Noted.

You can't provide enough security for ordinary by-elections. It shows your level of incompetence.

This godforsaken EYE-NECK may try to be transparent here because the biggest fishes in the politics of the nation are not seriously affected by the bye-elections. Therefore, I am not against the suspension of the bye-elections in those places, provided there is a good reason for the suspension. But it does not impress me.

I blame Nigerians

Who are the hoodlums? Nigerians. Who sent them? Nigerians.

Nigerians don't like the concept of free and fair elections at all.

Look at Enugu where the result sheets in all the polling units were not available. The results could have been in a room where they were writing the figures. Elections have never been free and fair in the southeas..

I just don't know the need for election in Nigeria when the system can select anyone of her choice to rule.

When my life be need an helper...
I run around the world searching for an helper...
That was the reason I ran to my brother..
But the help oo he didn't care to render...
My dear see!
It makes me to begin to dey wonder...
I said my brother could not be my helper.. chiioo!
That makes to cry like a loser but I get up to meet God in prayer

Omo see! In prayer that Jesus start His wonder eeh and His wonders e strike like a thunder
And my enemies they all come dey scattered. Them carry hands for up and they cry. We have surrender....

Please my brothers...
Follow me thank God for Open doors abegi follow to thank God for breakthrough...
Jesus Christ don butter my bread... Abeggi follow me to see God in Power...


Chorus.....

Once there is no deterrent for election violence, it will continue to happen during elections in Nigeria. The MC Oluomo's and his ilk who promoted election violence and those who perpetrated it during the last general election are walking free today. No consequence for their evils action meted out to innocent voters whose only crime was to come out to vote for the candidate of their choice. When INEC becomes serious with conducting elections in Nigeria we will all know it, but for now, they are only joking.
