The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has declared the Kaura-Namoda South Constituency bye-election in Zamfara State inconclusive.
The Returning Officer, Professor Lawal Sa’adu of the Federal University, Gusau, announced the decision, citing that the margin between the leading party and the runner-up was smaller than the number of Permanent Voter Cards (PVCs) collected in polling units where results were cancelled.
He explained that elections were cancelled in two registration areas in Sakajiki and Kyambarawa wards.
INEC is expected to announce a new date for a supplementary election to determine the final outcome.
