The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) says the governorship supplementary election scheduled for March 23, would be conducted in 14 local government areas of Adamawa state.

Mr Kasim Gaidam, the Resident Electoral Commissioner in the state disclosed this to the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Sunday in Yola.

Gaidam said the election would be conducted in 29 Wards (Registration Areas) and 44 Polling Units where over 40,000 votes were earlier cancelled in the recent governorship selection.

“The Commission had prepared for the Supplementary Governorship election in the state. The election is going to be conducted in 14 LGAs, 29 Wards and 44 Polling Units spread across the state,” Gaidam said.

He listed the local areas to include: Yola South, Fufore, Ganye, Girei, Guyuk and Hong.

Other are: Lamurde, Numan, Madagali, Michika, Mubi North, Shelleng, Song and Toungo local government areas.

Gaidam, however, explained that the election was declared inconclusive as provided for in law, based only on official registered voters, not Permanent Voter Cards collected or accredited voters.

He said: “Other figures being circulated should be disregarded as only report released by the Returning Officer should be considered.”

Recall that the results of the governorship election announced by the INEC Returning Officer, Prof. Andrew Haruna show that the PDP candidate, Ahmadu Fintiri scored 367,472 votes, while a total of 334,995 votes were scored by incumbent governor, Muhammad Bindow, the APC candidate.

The margin between them was 32,476 votes.

MyParadise:
Can Pdp hold on to this winning?

Even if all the voters that will come out on Saturday vote for APC, they still can't overturn the victory of PDP.
The exercise on Saturday is simply to fulfill all righteousness. It's an exercise in futility and a waste of national resources.

Southwest2023:
APC will win

In ur dream?

Southwest2023:
APC will win

maybe in Plateau state. But in Adamawa, Kano, Bauchi, Sokoto and Benue are now officially pDP states.
We are just watching the magic the apc and inconclusive national electoral commission will use to change the results.

No Rigging can make Apc win this

Congratulations to PDP!!!!
APC IS going gradually in the north

Southwest2023:
APC will win

dey will win by rigging.u ar jst a scumbag

Jokers and riggers and a load of incompetent buffoons is what we have here.
By law no person can vote unless if he/she has a PVC.
Simply means only people with PVCs can vote,even if they were registered.
But a Nigerian agency INEC that made that same electoral law is now saying it's declaring an election inconclusive based on registered voters,not on PVCS.
If this is not st upidity and brainlessness in it's undiluted form I wonder what it is.

INEC is a fraud. Imagine them saying not based on PVC collected but official record of registered voters. I thought its PVC that makes someone an eligible voter. Shame on INEC.

EFCC should prove them

APC can't do any magic in Adamawa. Rt. (Hon) Umaru Fintiri aka ATM will be return elected

Southwest2023:
APC will win

hahahahahahahaha

Apc rigs without intelligence. The party cannot stop displaying infantilism. The whole world is laughing at us and Britain is wondering why they allowed us independence so early. Even if all the people who collected their pvc's vote for Bindow, the PDP man is still the winner. INEC that has been infected with APC''s low mentality is now trying to initiate a rigging avenue by telling us that the inconclusiveness of the election is based on the number of registered voters. Are they gonna allow those without pvc's to vote? They can because they work for apc. But if by magic they don't, then only the number of those with pvc's will vote and they are less than the vote difference between the two contestants.

I am not too comfortable with that Sokoto result.

MadeInTokyo:
Adamawa is now PDP
PDP is Adamawa

The PDP votes is insurmountable to over turn in the rerun , before zombies argue with me , go and ask how many PVC were collected in the polling units were there will be rerun and and cross check it with the figure PDP is already leading with

Congratulations to Governor elect Fintiri of the PDP

INEC messed up big time, with the way their state RECs were deliberately cancelling votes under the instruction of APC governors in order to deliberately declare election inconclusive to deny PDP candidates of victory.

What do you expect when you have Returning Officers who are APC apologist like in the case of Bauchi. The RO is from Borno state his name alone speaks itself @Kyari

Gaidam, however, explained that the election was declared inconclusive as provided for in law, based only on official registered voters, not Permanent Voter Cards collected or accredited voters.

Can someone explain this for me
How do you declare an election inconclusive based on number of registered voters and not number of accredited voters.
It's just like declaring lagos state election inconclusive due to 18% voter turn out of 5.5 million registered voters.
