Protesters take over INEC office in Imo

The rescheduled Presidential and National Assembly elections were disrupted in Omo State as hundreds of trained collation/returning officers have taken over the office of the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, in Owerri, Imo State, to protest removal of their names.
They alleged that INEC was using only names of those from the Federal University of Technology, FUTO, Owerri.
Some of them claimed that they were promised to come on Friday to know the locations they were posted but that up-to now
INEC had refused to address them or give them any clue, concerning their duty posts.
However, the Imo state INEC, Public Relation Officer, PRO, Emmanuella Opara, has denied the allegation. She explained that successful ones would be contacted via text messages.
