After suspending the Gubernatorial and House of Assembly elections in Kwande Local Government Area of Benue State, INEC is set to conduct the process on Tuesday, March 21, 2023.

Channels reports that following the mix-up of some of the sensitive materials for the two-state assembly constituencies in the area, the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) suspended the polls in Kwande East and Kwande West.

However in a statement on Monday, Festus Okoye, INEC National Commissioner and Chairman of Information and Voter Education Committee said the Commission came to a conclusion with stakeholders and voters for the polls to be rescheduled.

For this reason, voters and stakeholders agreed that the elections should be rescheduled. Consequently, the Commission issued a statement that a new date will be announced for the elections,” Okoye stated.

“After further consultation with stakeholders, our Resident Electoral Commissioner in Benue State, Professor Sam Egwu, has advised that the State office is ready to proceed with the rescheduled elections.

“Accordingly, the Commission approved that the elections shall hold tomorrow, Tuesday, March 21, 2023.
