The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has announced Saturday, April 15 for conclusion of the Governorship elections in Adamawa and Kebbi States hitherto declared inconclusive.

TheNewsGuru.com (TNG) reports that the Commission also said all National and Assembly elections declared inconclusive will also be concluded on the same day.

Chief Press Secretary to the INEC Chairman, Rotimi Oyekunmi said this followed a decision taken at the commission’s meeting on Monday.

He said: “Arising from its meeting held today, the Independent National Electoral Commission has decided that all outstanding Governorship, National and State Assembly supplementary elections will take place on Saturday 15th April 2023”.

Recall that scores of angry demonstrators had stormed the National Collation Centre at the International Conference Centre in Abuja to demand that the Independent National Electoral Commission keep to its promise to deploy electronic transmission of results.

The development is coming barely 24 hours after a similar group gathered near the National Defence College, a few metres away from the centre, chanting “INEC, keep your promises”, “No IREV, no collation,” among others.

Tuesday’s demonstration saw the angry youths expressing dissatisfaction over the electoral umpire’s refusal to deploy live feed to transmit election results electronically.

Addressing journalists to cover the protest at Emeka Anyaoku street (about kilometre to the collation centre), one of the protest coordinators, Ilemona Onoja, explained that their major demand was for the INEC chairman, Prof Mamood Yakubu, to fulfill his pledge of a free, transparent and open process.
