The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has reported that hoodlums have disrupted the court-ordered re-run election in the Enugu South 1 State Constituency. The commission stated this via a post on its X handle Wednesday.
It further added that although there were no recorded casualties, election materials were damaged, and voters were obstructed from casting their votes.
The post read:
“A report from our Enugu State office indicates that hoodlums have disrupted the court-ordered re-run election in the Enugu South 1 State Constituency.
Fortunately, no casualties were reported, but election materials were destroyed, and voters were obstructed from casting their votes.
Our officials have been safely evacuated with assistance from security agencies.”
The commission also noted that in contrast, “the supplementary election in the Jalingo/Yorro/Zing Federal Constituency of Taraba State is unfolding peacefully across three Local Government Areas.”
