INEC Chairman, Mahmood Yakubu
The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) on Tuesday began a nationwide verification exercise for centres proposed for voting units to be converted to polling units across the country.
Its Chairman, Prof. Mahmood Yakubu, stated this when he visited some of the proposed centres and existing polling units in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) and Nasarawa State.
Yakubu spoke with reporters at the exercise at the INEC’s office in Karu Local Government, Nasarawa State.
He gave assurance that the Continuous Voters Registration exercise would commence on June 28 after the PUs conversion.
“All the National Commissioners are out, visiting the states of the Federation to verify the work of converting the voting points to polling units.
“So, we decided from the headquarters to visit some of the polling units and voting points in the FCT and also in the Karu Local Government, Nasarawa State.
“We have done that of FCT; we are now in Karu.
“You will recall that as part of our engagement with stakeholders, we show images of one of the congested polling units in the country from Karu in Nasarawa State.”
