The Department of State Services (DSS) and the Police have begun fresh screening of
journalists, election observers, party
agents and other stakeholders at the
collation centre of the Independent
National Electoral Commission (INEC) in
Kano, Kano State.
Journalists were orderly and already
seated at the collation hall patiently
waiting for continuation of the suspended
event when security personnel suddenly
announced that everyone should move out
for a fresh screening, regardless of the
tags previously given to journalists by INEC.
As of the time of filing in this report, the
people had been returned into the hall.
INEC officials are currently meeting as they
try to sort out “some anomalies” in results
for Nasarawa and Kibiya local government
areas, which are the only two pending
local governments.
Before INEc declared the election
inconclusive, Abdullahi Ganduje, candidate
of the All Progressives Congress (APC) had
polled 987,819 votes, while Abba Yusuf,
candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party
(PDP), was leading with 1,014,474 votes.
