The Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, has nullified purported declaration of winner in the Adamawa Governorship election.
In a statement released on Sunday afternoon, INEC said: “The attention of the Commission has been drawn to a purported declaration of winner in the Adamawa Governorship election by the Resident Electoral Commissioner (REC) even when the process has clearly not been concluded.
“The action of the REC is a usurpation of the power of the Returning Officer. It is null, void and of no effect.”
“Consequently, the collation of results of the supplementary election is hereby suspended.”
Details to come.
