The election is scheduled for September 21 across 18 local government areas in the state.

Security

In a statement on Thursday, Joseph Eboigbe, Secretary to the State Government (SSG), assured the public that adequate security arrangements had been put in place for the conduct of the election.

“This is to enable workers and other electorates to travel to their voting areas ahead of the September 21 governorship election in the state,” the statement reads.

“The government wishes everyone journey mercies and reassures that security measures have been provided to ensure a free, fair, and credible election,” the SSG stated.
