The Independent National Electoral Commission(INEC) in Jigawa state has
announced the postponement of election in seven out of eleven federal
constituencies. According to the resident electoral commissioner in the
state, Alhaji Halliru Aliyu Tambawel, the postponement was as a result
of lack of sensitive materials including ballot papers and results
sheets from the Central Bank of Nigeria to be used for the elections.
He said the federal constituencies where there would be a postponement includes Dutse/Kiyawa, Ringim/ Taura, HadeJia/Kafin Hausa/Auyo, and Jahun Miga federal Constituencies of Jigawa state, others include Gumel/Maigatari/Sule tankarkar/ Gagarawa, Kaugama/Malam-madori and Gwaram Federal constituencies.
