INEC assures of free, acceptable polls in Kebbi

The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) in Kebbi State has assured of free, fair, credible and acceptable elections on Saturday.

The commission renewed its commitment against allegations by the People’s Democratic party (PDP) that there was a plan to rig the gubernatorial and state assembly elections in the state.

Reacting to the development in Birnin Kebbi on Thursday, the Deputy Director, Voter Education and Publicity, INEC, Kebbi State, Alhaji Muhammadu Rabi’u, said the allegations were mere speculations.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the PDP had alleged a plan to delay BVAS accreditation process as well as add unaccredited voters to cause outright cancellation of some polling units.
