Voters Commends INEC Over Oke Ero By-Election
Electorate in Oke Ero Local Government Area of Kwara on Saturday commended the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) over the smooth conduct of Oke Ero constituency by-election in their constituency.
Voters, who spoke with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Ilofa, headquarters of Oke Ero Local Government Area, were particularly happy that accreditation and voting commenced on schedule.
A voter, Olaoye Babatunde, said the simultaneous accreditation and voting adopted by INEC, was a good innovation that removed rancour from the polling units.
Babatunde also noted that card reader used for accreditation in his polling unit worked well, adding that where the machine was unable to recognise fingerprints, polling officers used incident forms to accredit affected voters.
He called on the commission to adopt the simultaneous accreditation and voting method in future elections. Resident Electoral Commissioner (REC) in the state, Alhaji Baba Yusuf, after monitoring the exercise, expressed satisfaction with the turnout of voters and their overall conduct at the polling units.
Yusuf commended all ad hoc staff for their diligence in handling the exercise, and urged them to ensure that all eligible and accredited voters cast their votes.
Chairman of Oke Ero Local Government Council, Hajia Aminat Yusuf, also expressed satisfaction with the conduct of the exercise. (NAN)
