INEC confirms omission of APC from result sheets in Zamfara

* We’ll insert it with biro – REC 

The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has confirmed the omission of the acronym of the All Progressives Congress (APC) on the results sheets for today’s Governorship and House of Assembly elections in Zamfara.

The commission’s National Secretary , Mrs Rose Oriaran -Anthony in a letter referenced INEC/SEC/265/Vol. 1/X,  dated March 8, said the omission was as a result of the legal tussle that trailed the primaries of the APC in the state.

INEC in the letter, addressed to all chairmen of political parties in the state, said APC was included in the ballot papers for the elections.

“As a solution, the commission has decided to manually create columns in each of the result sheets after the last printed party, ZLP and insert the APC. This does not affect any other information on the result sheets,” she said.

When contacted, the Resident Electoral Commissioner (REC) in the state, Dr Asmau Maikudi, said they have been directed to insert the APC acronym with biro.
