The Nation Newspaper Kogi 2023: We’re 90% ready for peaceful, credible polls – INEC

The Independent National Electoral Commission has assured that it is 90 per cent ready for the Nov. 11 governorship election in Kogi.Longpet also disclosed that the commission has recruited over 15,000 adhoc staff to help it in the smooth conduct of the polls.

“We shall deploy more staff and BVAS in densely populated polling units to complement those we are going to use.“This is because some polling units have more than 1,000 to 2,000 registered voters, and we have to split the number by creating more voting points for easy voting.“As soon as there is a report of any BVAS failure or challenge, we shall provide another one and configure it to that polling unit for smooth continuation of voting,” he said.

On security, the commissioner said flash points, which the security operatives identified, would be well taken care of by them to help us have a hitch free election.
