INEC Faces Challenges Ahead of Bayelsa State Elections

In a recent press statement released today, the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), Bayelsa State Office, disclosed challenges faced during the transportation of personnel and electoral materials to Registration Area Centers (RACs) ahead of the upcoming elections.


On Friday, 10th November 2023, a boat en route to Registration Area-17 (Koluama) in Southern Ijaw LGA capsized. Fortunately, all 12 election personnel and the boat operator were rescued, and no lives were lost. However, the incident resulted in the loss of crucial election materials, including result sheets, power banks, and personal belongings of the staff.


The affected Registration Area-17 has 5,368 registered voters, with 5,311 PVCs collected. Despite the setback, INEC is actively working to ensure the smooth conduct of elections in the impacted area.


In another unfortunate event, the INEC State Presiding Officer (SPO) assigned to Registration Area-06 (Ossioma) in Sagbama LGA was reportedly abducted while waiting to board a boat at Amassoma Jetty. Security agencies have been notified, and efforts are underway to address the situation.


Wilfred O. Ifogah, Head of Voter Education & Publicity, speaking on behalf of the Bayelsa State INEC Office, emphasized their commitment to overcoming these challenges and ensuring the integrity of the electoral process in the state.
