But before we start accreditation we have to address the villagers by first apologies for coming late because election was scheduled to start by 8am and end by 2pm but we got there behind schedule. So my duty as APO was register check and inking which I have been doing even in general elections . When the voters come I will collect their voter card and cross check with the register before the ballot papers are issued to them for voting, after voting you inked the voters so that he/ will not double vote

The final result was announced on Sunday which PDP worn 30 local government and APC worn in only 1 local government area.
it was a nice moment to witness and also conduct the local government election in my state.
I pray that the Nigerian government will use our vote this time around because previously we could vote using ballot paper but it's never counted best wishes dear

Good to see you played a huge role in the chairmanship election last week. In my area, it was really hot as people were paid to cause havoc. Anyways, thanks for sharing what happened that day with us.

I believe there's no peaceful election be it general election or Chairmanship Election, election can only be peaceful if we embrace electronic voting, this simply implies voting at the comfort of your home,in some local government I heard that people were killed and in Ibiono they burnt down Akiesie office so sad 😭😢 and terrible, but in all I thank God there was no riot in my area

It is an important thing to set a day to select who will be our leader in this Arm of government,but the issue is are there doing in a proper way ?.
I appreciate you for giving time to be one of the officials that handled the election.
Local Government Election should have been a nice election because it talking about the grassroots people where the activities of government begin.
But even the leaders at the highest level still come down to select who will lead us in Local Government Area and
Wards ,it doesn't make any sense at all.
I thank God you have witness the situation by yourself as an official because some years ago I my self have been an official in local Government Election but, they did not allow us to work properly as we were trained.
The influence of the government in power was much and materials taken away,so I swear not to participate in any thing like local Government Election official duty.
Because lastly, you will not be able to return any thing as a returning officer.
Thank you for doing your quota @nsison2022
