The Osun State Independent Electoral Commission, OSSIEC, has revealed that the February 22, 2025, local government election in the state will be held only in the constitutionally recognised local government council areas.
The commission also warned that the date of the local government poll remained sacrosanct notwithstanding the amendment to the original notice. The OSSIEC Chairman, Barrister Hashim Abioye, made this known to journalists on Friday.
recalls that on Monday, the state chapter of the Inter Party Advisory Council, IPAC, announced that it was boycotting the forthcoming poll. Osun IPAC based their decision on allegations that the OSSIEC Chairman, Hashim Abioye, was not engaging their stakeholders and carrying the 16 political parties that constituted the council along in its plans for the LG poll.
