The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has postponed the House of Assembly Election for the Nasarawa/Binyeri State Constituency of Adamawa, Igbere TV has learnt.

Igbere TV gathered that the Resident Electoral Commissioner (REC) in the state, Mr Kashim Gaidam, revealed this to newsmen on Thursday in Yola.

Gaidam said that the postponement became necessary following the death of a member of the assembly, who was candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the election.

Igbere TV reports that the APC candidate, Mr Adamu Kwanate, until his death on Wednesday, was the member representing the constituency.

Igbere TV had earlier reported that the late Kwanate collapsed while campaigning for his re-election, and died later in an hospital in Yola.

Gaidam said that the postponement would allow APC and people of the constituency to find a replacement.

“We received a letter from the party and the House of Assembly regarding the death of the candidate and we have replied, giving them one week to find a replacement.

“We will communicate their replacement to the headquarters to fix a new date for the election,” Gaidam said.
