The Independent National Electoral Commission has suspended the ongoing re-run elections in Bonny, Andoni, Gokana, and Khana local government areas of Rivers State.
INEC’s Deputy Director of Public Affairs, Nick Dazang, confirmed to PREMIUM TIMES that the elections were suspended in the areas because of violence.
Mr. Dazang said there was also high voters’ apathy in the areas because of the allegations of fake result sheets.
Bonny, Andoni, and Khana were among the local government areas where the Rivers state government and the Peoples Democratic Party alleged fake result sheets were in circulation.
There were reports of pockets of violence and ballots snatching in the elections, although the police said the poll was largely peaceful.
For instance, some thugs were said to have snatched election materials around 2.30pm at three units in WIiyaakara Ward, Khana Local Government Area.
At Bori, also in Khana, INEC officials were reportedly scared of stepping out of their offices to conduct the election because of threats from persons wearing fake military uniform.


A 14-seater bus was burnt down in Alode, Eleme Local Government Area, and there were also reports of a shoot-out in Rumuekini, Obio Akpor Local Government Area.
The Army in the state paraded some fake soldiers arrested at Khana.
However, counting of votes has begun in some polling units across the state.
Meanwhile, the state government has accused the Nigerian military of colluding with the All Progressives Congress in the state to hijack election materials.
The government in a statement sent to PREMIUM TIMES around 3.58pm said it “noted with shock and disgust the role played by the military in the reported diversion of all voting materials meant for the Isaka community, in Okrika Local Government Area.”
The government said, “This is sickening betrayal of democracy by the military, and will never be allowed to stand.”
The APC in the state dismissed the statement by the Rivers government as mere falsehood.

they have lost those areas, now its now inconclusive. no evil plan of APC would work.

Rivers state have proof that dictatorship will not work again in Nigeria with all the military Buhari sent to rivers they still loose massively

Buhari will be in record as the first president that loose control less than a year in office

This is not just funny anymore. I have a bad feeling concerning 2018/2019 general elections. If this INEC/FG cant conduct a single state elections in a single day i wonder what will happen when morethan 20 states get involved in election the same day.

APC‘s hungry for power all means is pushing this country back into the dark ages. I am afraid because all the goodwill of Jonathan andlegasy of bloodlessness is being rubished by this blood sucking governement.
River state has experienced lots of bloodshed today and with this postponment of these four LGAs it means that more blood will still flow.

Oh! INEC who has bewitched you like this? In less than a years, you have fallen like a pack of card exposed to evil wild wind.
Oh! I weep for Nigeria.

OK........ Premium time should give us results of the other local governments.

I'm beginning to think election wasn't held in Rivers state. No announcement of results from credible source since 4pm. Na wa o.

I knew this would happen. The violence that greeted the election and the apparent ineptitude of INEC made this inevitable. No notable election has been conducted post-Jega's era that was conclusive. The electoral process should get better and not deteriorate.
