INEC fixes March 14 for four bye-elections
‘s national commissioner for Information and Voter Education, Festus Okoye, disclosed this on Monday via a statement. This means four bye-elections will now hold on February 14.
The commission earlier last week announced the same date for bye-elections in three constituencies in Kwara, Sokoto, and Niger states. INEC said the bye-elections were a result of the deaths of the lawmakers holding the seats in the national and state assemblies.It will be recalled that on 6th February 2020, the Independent National Electoral Commission fixed Saturday 14th March 2020 for the conduct of bye-elections in three constituencies following the deaths of some serving members of the National and State Assemblies.
The Commission has therefore fixed Saturday 14th March 2020 for the bye-election to be held simultaneously with the other bye elections on the same date. The Timetable and Schedule of Activities for the Babura/Garki Federal Constituency has been uploaded on the Commission’s website and other social media platforms.
