Rivers State Deputy Governor and Senator-Elect of Rivers West Senatorial District, Dr. (Mrs.) Ipalibo Harry Banigo has encouraged INEC to continue to do the right thing.
Dr Banigo stated this shortly after casting her vote at Ward 14 Unit 10 in Obuama, Degema Local Government Area.
According to the Deputy Governor, the Election could not hold yesterday because INEC had insufficient materials, noting that the Obuama People were peaceful and ready to exercise their franchise today.
“Unfortunately yesterday the electoral materials were insufficient and my people the Obuama people are always peaceful, we quietly waited because we want to exercise our franchise.
Today we are here you can see the turnout is still great and voting is going on peacefully, so I want to encourage INEC to continue to do the right thing and encourage everybody to continue to stay peaceful”.
