INEC Chairman Professor Mahmood Yakubu has said the off-cycle governorship elections in Kogi, Imo, and Bayelsa states are critical.
Yakubu, who spoke at a meeting with CSOs ahead of the elections, disclosed that INEC has accredited about 145 organisations deploying 7,896 observers. Yakubu said: “In discharging our responsibilities, we will continue to engage with all stakeholders. One of such engagements is with the security agencies.
“Similarly, civil society organisations have on several occasions urged the commission to intercede with the security agencies to grant you unimpeded access to voting and collation locations.
