RiversRerun Update: INEC Releases Latest Results From Election

The Independent National Election Commission (INEC) released the latest poll results from the Rivers State rerun election today. The Rivers State rerun election on March 19th had systematic security challenges and violence forcing INEC to cancel some electoral exercises.

The Resident Electoral Commissioner (REC) for Rivers State Aniedi Ikoiwak, who issued a statement with the poll results, said “some of the State/Federal Constituencies and Senatorial seats are inconclusive as a result of reports of election cancellations and elections not conducted for reasons of serious violence in some units.”
He added that a “new date to conduct [the remaining polls] will be communicated to the public after due consultation with the Stateholders.”

According to Mr. Ikoiwak a total of eleven State constituency and four Federal constituency results have been declared by INEC to date.
