Card reader fails to accredit Gov Bello in his polling unit

Kogi State governor Alhaji Yahaya Bello was at his polling unit, Unit 11, Agassa-Ahache Okene–Eba ward, in Okene Local Government Area of Kogi State as early as 8.30am but unfortunately, till 12pm he has been unable to cast his vote.

Governor Bello was accompanied to the polling unit by two of his wives, Hajia Rashida Bello and Hajia Amina Bello.

But unfortunately, the Governor could not be accredited due to the malfunctioning of card reader.

INEC officials said that they are going to provide an alternative card reader.

The unit has total registered voters of 844, whose voting in the election depends on how soon INEC would provide an alternative card reader for the area.
