Politics!!! Dec 5th Kogi State Gubernatorial Supplementary Election Will Hold- INEC

The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has described as mere day dreaming the insinuations in some quarters that the electoral umpire might consider the option of cancelling the Dec 5^th supplementary election and conduct a fresh election, following the controversies trailing the Kogi gubernatorial election.

INEC reiterated that there is no going back on the planned Kogi State governorship supplementary election scheduled for December 5. In fact, to demonstrate its readiness for the supplementary election, the commission said it had prepared its supplementary budget for the election.

The commission’s Deputy Director of Voters Education and Publicity, Mr. Nick Dazang, stated this in an interview with PUNCH correspondent in Abuja on Saturday. He said the commission was not ready to either shift or postpone the scheduled election,

In his words:

“We are prepared for the election and we are not thinking of either postponing it or cancelling it. In fact, we have prepared a supplementary budget for the election. The budget is for the conduct of the election and it will cover expenses such as accommodation, allowance and other logistics for the election”.
