 For the 11th November 2023 of Circle Elections, the Independent National Electoral Commission has sent sensitive and non-sensitive election materials to Imo, Kogi and Bayosa. This was said by Professor Mamoud Yacoubu, the Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission on Tuesday in Abuja at a customary quarterly consultation with political parties. He claims that because previous elections had only been held in one state at a time, the elections on December 11 will be the first of their sort in Nigeria's democratic history. In order to prevent impersonation and ensure that all security arrangements have been made to ensure a successful election, Professor Yacoubu states that the printing of identity cards for election agents would also be finished prior to the election. Today, the subject matter of our meeting is the ongoing preparations for the three off-cycle governorship elections in Bayosa, Imo and Kogi states scheduled to hold on Saturday 11th November 2023. With just a little over two weeks to the election, we are at the concluding conclusions stages of our preparations. This is the first time that the Commission will be conducting three off-cycle governorship elections simultaneously across different geopolitical zones. This is made possible by the coincidence of the end of Tenwa of the current holders of the offices which fall within the constitutional time frame of not earlier than 150 days or later than 30 days before the expiration of their terms of office as enshrined in section 178, subsection 2 of the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, 1999 as amended. Glowing tributes will be showered on the pioneers and icons of Nigerian politics who have shaped the nation's political landscape, foster unity of purpose and nationalism. We therefore request party leaders and the Commission to support the realization of this laudable program. I wish to, on behalf of the Council and Gerard Assembly, once again, I appreciate the Chairman, Professor Mahmoudi Akubu, for the sponsoring of the IPAC first election observation mission in the Liberia election. This gesture is another testimony to the entire in-effort of the INEC Chairman at building a formidable and well-informed political class in Nigeria. We are proud of you, sir, and your team.
