Bayelsa Guber Election: APC commends INEC
The All Progressives Congress (APC) in Bayelsa has commended the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) for the success recorded in the ongoing governorship election.
APC spokesman in the state, Doifie Boukoribo, gave the commendation shortly after casting his vote in polling Unit 4, Ward 4 Okpo Play Ground II, Okpoama Brass LGA.
Mr Boukoribo, however, expressed displeasure over reports that some APC members were prevented from voting at Sampou and other communities in Kolokuma Opokuma LGA.
He urged security agencies to wade into the situation and ensure that all Bayelsa citizens of voting age exercised their franchise.
