“We have refused the commencement of accreditation/voting at PU 002, Enem Hall, Otolo Ward 2, Nnewi North LGA since the INEC officials did not arrive with original result sheet,” Mr China Christian, a PDP supporter, told reporters.
“Until we sight the election result sheet, voting will not commence. Those preparing to write election results in their hotel rooms will meet their waterloo today,” he said.
Meanwhile, Gov. Willie Obiano was one of the first people to vote in Anambra State’s ongoing gubernatorial election.
Obiano was accompanied to the Otuocha Ward 4 voting station by his wife, Chief Mrs Ebelechukwu, where they both went through a quick registration process before casting their votes in the polling booth.
Governor Obiano, speaking to the press shortly after casting his ballot, urged Ndi Anambra residents to come out and vote as soon as possible, emphasizing that the voting process would just take a few hours.
