The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) says it won’t count votes in any polling unit where violence occurs in Saturday’s governorship election in Bayelsa.

The INEC Chairman, Prof. Mahmood Yakubu, said this in Yenagoa, at a stakeholders meeting.

Yakubu, represented by the INEC National Commissioner supervising Akwa-Ibom, Bayelsa and Rivers, Mrs May Agbamuche-Mbu, said that INEC would deploy BIVAS to all polling units for the election.

“I want to let you know that our BIVAS have been customized for INEC, so INEC details and the name of the parties are on the BIVAS, so any BIVAS you see without INEC details cannot be from INEC.

“Another thing, we have all the list of the serial number of the BIVAS we are going to use, the result sheets will be sign at the polling units.

“Where there is violence, it will be zero, we will not return to that polling unit to conduct election.

“We have recruited and carefully train all category of ad-hoc staff to be deployed to the field, all non sensitive materials have been distributed to all the eight local government area offices of the state, voter education and sensitization is ongoing,” he said.
