Kebbi to hold LG poll February 2022

The Kebbi State Independent Electoral Commission (KESIEC) has scheduled a council poll for February 5, 2022. Chairman, KESIEC Alhaji Aliyu Mera, said this when he briefed newsmen shortly after a stakeholders’ meeting in Birnin Kebbi yesterday.

 

He said, “After a fruitful deliberation with parties, we have resolved without resistance from any party that we are going to conduct the local government council election on February 5, 2022.

 

“This is a collective and unanimous decision of all stakeholders. It is not a decision of the commission alone but that of stakeholders. Going by our programme, the parties requested an extension of time for sale of forms, which was granted. Apart from this, all other things were humbly accepted.”

 

Mera sought the support of stakeholders and the general public towards conducting a free, fair, and credible election.
