INEC Declares Rivers, Jigawa, Kaduna Lawmakers' Seats Vacant by nasoeb(op): 4:55pm On May 17, 2024

The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) yesterday announced vacancies in four constituencies caused by deaths or resignation of the lawmakers.

The vacancies include the Garki/Babura Federal Constituency of Jigawa State, caused by the death of Isa Dogonyaro on Friday in Abuja after an illness and three other state constituencies.

The state constituencies are: Khana 2 State Constituency of Rivers State, the Bagwai/Shanono State Constituency of Kano State, and the Zaria Kewaye State Constituency of Kaduna State.

Addressing a quarterly consultative meeting with Media Executive, INEC Chairman, Prof. Mahmood Yakubu, said the commission would announce the dates for by-elections into the affected constituencies as soon as necessary modalities were completed.

Yakubu also said the commission was remobilising to conclude the outstanding rerun elections in Enugu South 1 State Constituency of Enugu State and Ghari (formerly called Kunchi Local Government Area) for the Ghari/Tsanyawa State Constituency of Kano State.

The INEC chairman explained that the February 3 rerun elections in Enugu and Kano states were disrupted by violence and thuggery, forcing the commission to suspend the election.

He urged the media to assist the commission in mobilising Nigerians, especially residents of Edo and Ondo states, to participate in the Continuous Voter Registration (CVR) ahead of the off-cycle governorship elections in both state.

This is victory to PDP and especially to Fubara after many have been so disappointed with his approach towards this lawmakers issue all along.

You guys and fake news.

INEC only declare a constituency vacant in Rivers and from the publication, it was due to the death of the rep.

Dinebari Loolo died last year so that was why his seat was vacant.

This should be carried through... it would serve as deterrent to those that want to tow that path in the future..

Cross-carpetting disrupts developmental plans of government esp when lawmakers do it enmasse. Any president, governor, or legislator elected on a platform who decamps for selfish reasons as done in the past, when there is no major national crisis in their party automatically loses their seat..

We need to bring back sanity into this polity. We can't run a society where people do as they like.. that's jungle.

Hide it in books and they will not know

Sadly many comments are about the 27 who's seat are intact as per inec.

My guess supreme court will claim there is division in the pdp and let the 27 be.....first motion would probably be impeachment of Governor Fubara.....I hope Tinubu can help Wike and Fubara
