INEC Distributes Electoral Materials In Oyo

GBWA-20190215211440

The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), Oyo State Office, has begun the distribution of ballot papers and result sheets to all the 33 local government areas of the state.

Only party agents of five political parties witnessed the exercise at the venue of the distribution, Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), Ibadan office.

The agents were Gbenga Elegbede of the Zenith Labour Party (ZLP), Niyi Olatunji of Action Democratic Party (ADP), and Taiwo Oduola of the Providence People’s Congress, (PPC).

Others were All Progressives Congress’s (APC) Abdulazeez Olatunde, and Nureni Adeniran of the Peoples Democratic Party,(PDP).

The agents urged the electoral body to monitor the movement of the materials to each of the 33 local government areas, as corp members chosen as INEC ad-hoc workers were also present to collect election materials for tomorrow’s polls.

The distribution was supervised by the Resident Electoral Commissioner in Oyo state, Mr Mutiu Agboke.

However, some ballot papers and result sheets for Oyo Central Senatorial election and all the sensitive materials for the Presidential election had yet to arrive as the time of filling this report.

Agboke said there was no cause for alarm over the late arrival of some of the materials.

”We decided to start distributing what is on ground while awaiting the arrival of other materials.

”As you can see, the distribution is going on smoothly in the presence of party agents,” he said.
