We know the eventual winners already

Ek Ginni?

Okay

I thought they said the local government is going to b conducted by INEC not State government

If NASS is serious, they should phase out the SIECS. They are a condiut pipe for economic waste. All elections from LGA, State Assembly, and Gubernatorial elections should be held simultaneously and conducted by INEC. That is the only sure way for independent LG affairs. All these SIECS are governor's appendages.

I hope they prepare well to conduct the election.

Ok. It is noted.

Another election that will be roundly cleared by the party of the sitting governor or one he favours. Local government election in Nigeria is a sham.

Do u mean Ekeson transport service?

I never knew there was something like a time table for this

It is better that they have decided to conduct theirs after how many years unlike other states like Cross River that the Governor is still reluctant to say anything concerning the local government polls.

LG elections is one sector of our country that is under state control and every state in the country menses it up, which leads us to sometimes wonder what will happen when every thing is truly restructured, things like state police will just be local touts.
