IDPs Will Vote In Their Camps – INEC

The Independent Electoral Commission has come out to say that Internally Displaced Persons Voting Centers have been created for persons displaced by insecurity in Niger State.

The Niger State Resident Electoral Commissioner, Ahmed Garki recently revealed this to the press, and Nigerians have been reacting.

According to him, 247 polling units across the state are affected by insecurity in the state, and plans have been concluded to ensure that people from those units are not disenfranchised.

He added that the internally displaced persons will participate in the forthcoming general elections from their various camps.

His words, “248 polling units are affected by insecurity and those people who belong to those polling units would have their voting done from their IDP camps.”

“We have identified IDP camps in Shiroro, Munya, Mokwa, and Paikoro. The IDPs in Rafi local government area have all returned to their homes.”

WOW.
