Kaduna peaceful as INEC conducts rerun polls for State House of Assembly

Kaduna State was peaceful on Saturday as the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, conducted a rerun election for candidates in some constituencies in three local government areas of the state.

Recall that the results of some constituencies were declared inconclusive after the general election of March 18, 2023.

Security operatives were in strategic places before the commencement of the re-run election in some of the affected three local government areas of Kaduna State on Saturday.

It was gathered that INEC materials arrived early. While voting was peaceful, some residents were seen going about their normal business as restriction of movement was not strictly enforced.

The re-run election is taking place in Kauru, Kaura and Giwa LGAs.
