The Independent National Electoral Commission ( INEC ) office in Ibesikpo Asutan Local Government Area of Akwa Ibom State has been gutted by fire, few hours before the state’s election.
The cause of the fire remains unknown at the time of filing this report.
It was gathered that over 160 Card Readers out of 190 provided for the area were burnt including 12 brand-new generators, computer sets and other office equipment.
It is, however, unclear if the incident would affect the conduct of the governorship and state assemblies polls.
