25 JULBREAKING: INEC postpones Rivers rerun election
The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has postponed the scheduled rerun elections in Rivers State over security concern.
INEC had initially fixed July 30 for the rerun elections in some parts of the state.
In a statement signed by its Secretary, Mrs. Augusta Ogakwu, INEC maintained that it was ready to conclude the rerun election within the shortest possible time but the enabling environment must be provided by the political actors.
The commission cited last Saturday’s attack on its office in Khana local government area of the state as a sign of prevailing danger.
Details later.
