INEC: Governorship and state assembly elections postponed.

Independent National Electoral commission may have postponed the 2023 Governorship and state assembly elections due to inability to reconfigure bvas according to an insider.

 The meeting might not be unconnected with this weekend’ governorship election nationwide.

Sources said the planned postponement is due to the Commission’s inability to promptly commence reconfiguration of the Bimodal Voter Accreditation System (BVAS) machines utilized during the February 25 presidential election to enable their use in the state elections.

The commission was earlier restrained from tampering with the information embedded in the BVAS machines until the due inspection was conducted and Certified True Copies (CTC) issued to candidates who are challenging the outcome of the presidential election
