A meeting has been summoned by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to receive and consider the report of a fact-finding team it sent to Rivers state over the stalemated governorship election in the state.
A source who spoke on condition of anonymity said the electoral umpire would receive the report on Friday, March 15, after which chairman of the commission and his team would consider the findings and make a pronouncement.
The source said: “The panel on Rivers State will on Friday submit its report to INEC management. Thereafter, the Chairman of INEC, Prof. Mahmood Yakubu and his team will consider the findings and make a pronouncement.
“We are aware of the interest which the suspension of the elections in Rivers State has generated and we want to resolve it as soon as possible.”
