Governorship Poll Result: INEC Resumes Collation in Bauchi

The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), says it has resumed the collation of the Bauchi Governorship Election results, for the Tafawa Balewa Local Government Area(LGA) which was earlier suspended.

INEC on Monday, in a notice posted on its twitter handle @inecnigeria, said that the process would be completed on Monday.

According to INEC, “Following the striking out of the case instituted by the APC and its candidate Mohammed Abubakar against INEC and the order of injunction stopping the process, and collation of the Bauchi Governorship Election results, for the Tafawa Balewa LGA by INEC, has commenced.

“The suspended process will be concluded today with the state collation and declaration of result of the election.”

Recall that the Federal High Court sitting in Abuja, on Monday, gave INEC the leeway to continue and conclude the collation of the results of the March 9, Governorship election in the Tafawa Balewa LGA of Bauchi State.
