GOVERNORSHIP; STATE ASSEMBLY ELECTIONS TO HOLD TODAY IN BENUE LG

The Independent National Electoral Commission announced that the  governorship and House of Assembly elections will  take place today in Kwande Local Government Area of Benue State.

This announcement was contained in a statement signed by the National Commissioner and Chairman, Information and Voter Education Committee, Festus Okoye on Monday.

It would be recalled that the elections in Kwande LGA were suspended.

This decision followed an inadvertent mix up of some of the sensitive materials for the two state assembly constituencies in the area – Kwande East and Kwande West.

The Commission however,  appealled to voters in Kwande Local Government Area to troop out en masse and vote for the candidate of their choice
