INEC postpones election in Lagos community with over 5,000 voters

INEC Resident Electoral Commissioner, Segun Agbaje, says the elections in the affected 10 polling units in Lagos will hold on Sunday.

The hope of over 5,000 registered voters in the upscale Victoria Garden City area of Lagos State hangs in the balance as the governorship and State House of Assembly elections in the area were postponed on Saturday.

INEC Resident Electoral Commissioner, Segun Agbaje, said this while speaking with journalists on Saturday at the Estate. Mr Agbaje said the commission’s ad hoc staff set up voting materials in front of the estate on Saturday but the estate residents claimed that hoodlums might disrupt the process, so they did not feel secure and could not cast their votes outside the estate.
