Voters protest over fake ballot papers, result sheets in Taraba

SOME voters in Gyetta Aure and Asibiti Wards of Donga Local Government Area in Taraba Southern Senatorial District are protesting over the discovery of fake ballot papers and election result sheets.




     

     

    The discovery made in Gyetta Aure Ward halted the electoral process in the nine polling units of the ward.

    According to an electoral observer, dissatisfied voters started protesting after the fake ballot papers and results were detected while in Asibiti Ward voters were discouraged to vote due to the fake result sheets.

    At the time of filing this report all the electoral materials have been returned to the office of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).

    Gubernatorial and House of Assembly elections have, however, been suspended in the nine polling units in Asibiti Ward.
