NEC to conduct runoff in three Bayelsa constituencies

Meanwhile, INEC on Tuesday said that it would conduct a run-off in the three constituencies in Bayelsa State, where elections were declared inconclusive.

INEC Head of Department, Voter Education and Publicity, Mr Wilfred Ifogah, who announced this in Yenagoa, listed the constituencies as Ogbia Constituency 11, Brass 1 and Southern-Ijaw IV.

Out of the 24 seats in the Bayelsa House of Assembly, results of 21 have been declared; with the PDP winning 17, while the APC claimed four.

Ifogah explained that the reason for declaring result of three constituencies inconclusive was due to failure to follow INEC’s guidelines for the conduct of the 2019 general elections.

He said that the commission would inform stakeholders of the new date to conduct the election.

In a related development, the people of Basambiri, in Nembe Local Government Area have debunked a statement credited to the Bayelsa State Government that elections did not take place in the community.

Speaking to newsmen who went to monitor the election on Saturday, the Youth President of the community, Iruo Theo, the woman leader of the APC, Emmanuel Favour and Chief Agent Belele, said the election went on smoothly in the area.


Belele, who is the Deputy Chief of the community, said those who did not come for the elections on Saturday were those that had their hands soiled in the killing of an APC member during the presidential election.

He said contrary to the claims by the PDP members that the APC sympathisers chased them away from the community, he said it was the PDP thugs that killed an APC member.

I see PDP chasing out APC in 2023 if Mr inclusive will be fair enough to allow free election in areas where rerun will take place .....OP na me me FTC

We aren't celebrating you people until you start making things right in this Country.

Majority or Minority, we don't give a heck about that, pass Bills that'll affect positively the Governmental Bodies, A Common Citizen & the All Round Growth of the "Giant of Africa".

Nigerians needs to stop celebrating Mediocrity,
We need to stop celebrating petty things,
We need to start demanding for the Majors,
We need to Rise above Emotional Traumas,
The Fate of Africa lies on our Shoulders.

A better Nigeria is not good enough.

We Don't Want A Better Nigeria, We Demand A GREAT NIGERIA"




God Bless Nigeria
God Bless Nigerians

Okay...

seen

They can all come one from party if the president is not mature in his relationship with them they will still give him problem . Saraki and Dogara are from APC yet they don't have a good working relationship with the Presidency .

Out of the 24 seats in the Bayelsa House of Assembly, results of 21 have been declared; with the PDP winning 17, while the APC claimed four.

APC gradually infiltrating the SS. It's surprising that APC also has a senator from Bayelsa.
