The Delta State Resident Electoral Commissioner, REC, Dr Cyril
Omoregbe, vowed that he will not hesitate to cancel the rescheduled
Presidential and National Assembly polls on Saturday should the
Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, headquarters delay to
send all electoral materials to the state.
This may not be unconnected to the fact that prior to last
weekend’s postponement, Omoregbe said the commission did not deploy
election materials to the field owing to non-receipt of some sensitive
electoral materials.
He warned during a media chat in Asaba, saying “if all of the
electoral materials which have not been supplied but which we have
notified INEC Abuja has not arrived by Friday 2.00 p.m. I will not
hesitate to cancel the election. I will not wait till 2.00 a.m. to
cancel the poll. Some of the discrepancies we spotted in the materials
include those of other states wrongly sent to Delta and vice versa. Some
local government areas did not have result sheets.”
