...Emmanuel Ukpong-Udo Gets 2nd Term

Following widespread sporadic shootings, violence and maiming of voters in the 17 Units of Ward 11, Itak, the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, has cancelled the Supplementary election of Ikono/Ini Federal Constituency.

Our reporter observed that voting could not take place in almost all the units due to the massive shooting.

Announcing the cancellation, the Resident Electoral Commissioner; Cyril Omoregbe, who briefed collation officers in his office on Saturday evening April 15, 2023 said the election stands canceled following reports of violence that claimed few lives.

The INEC statement further indicates that the YPP candidate, Hon. Emmanuel Ukpong-Udo having scored majority of votes cast in the previous election stands elected.

Also briefing newsmen in Uyo, agent of the Young Progressives Party (YPP), Barr Eteyen Archibong, said, "What took place today was a charade and nothing to right home about. In fact, voting did not hold in the (Itak) polling units. ”

Barr. Archibong urged the electoral umpire to declare the candidate of the Young Progressives Party (YPP), Hon Emmanuel Ukpong-Udo, who scored the highest number of votes in the February 25 House of Representatives election, leading his close rival, Glory Edet of PDP with over 4,000 votes.

Also speaking, the State Secretary of YPP, Ambassador Kelvin Umoh, who was flanked by the agent of All Progressives Congress (APC), Prince Ini Udom, advised INEC in the State to announce his party's candidate as winner of the Ikono/Ini House of Representatives election having previously scored majority of the votes cast during the last election.

Why did INEC not do the same in the governorship election.

The governorship election was worse
