Kebbi governorship election inconclusive: INEC

The Governorship Election in Kebbi State has been declared inconclusive by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC). According to INEC’s Resident Electoral Commissioner Professor Yusuf Saidu, the governorship election in Kebbi state was declared inconclusive due to irregularities which marred the elections in 18 local government areas of the state. The returning officer quoted some sections from the electoral law which gave him the power to declare the results inconclusive.

The declaration has now left the leading candidates in the election, Nasir Idris of the All Progressives Congress and Aminu Bande of the Peoples Democratic Party in limbo until the commission announces a day for the conclusion of the Election.
