INEC to hold fresh election in 300 polling units

Following the failure of the card reader in some polling units across the country, the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, has disclosed that elections will take place in 300 polling stations across the federation.

An INEC official stated that the commission, from reports made to it by field officers, showed that polling did not take place in about 300 polling units and that the commission has directed for a fresh poll in affected units.

The INEC official attributed the challenge to battery and inability to activate the sim cards of the card readers and the non-removal of the cellophane ‎ of the card readers.
