The Independent National Electoral Commission in Osun says 2,500 registered voters are expected to take part in the supplementary election for Oriade Constituency in Osun State Assembly on March 23.
He said that the supplementary election would hold at Polling Units: 2, 3, 4, 8 and 14 of Ward 8 in Oriade Local Government area to determine elected member of the constituency in the State House of Assembly.“Corps members would be engaged, re-trained and moved to the polling units to handle the conduct of the supplementary election.
“We are using our local government office as our RAC. Four or five security agents will be stationed per polling unit. “We expect, within two to three hours, to move the results to the RAC and Local Government Centre and later the Constituency Collation Centre where the result will be announced,’’ he said.“Though subjected to police decision, I don’t think there would be restriction of movements during the election.
