Dr Cyril Omoregbe, the Delta State Resident Electoral Commissioner (REC), has threatened that he will not hesitate to cancel the rescheduled general elections on Saturday, February 23 should the INEC headquarters delay to send necessary electoral materials to the state, Igbere Tv.
This threat may not be unconnected to the fact that prior to the shift of the rescheduled elections, Omoregbe said INEC did not deploy election materials to the field owing to non-receipt of some sensitive electoral materials.
Omoregbe during a media chat in Asaba warned that; “if all of the electoral materials which have not been supplied but which we have notified INEC Abuja has not arrived by Friday 2.00 p.m. I will not hesitate to cancel the election. I will not wait till 2.00 a.m. to cancel the poll.
Some of the discrepancies we spotted in the materials include those of other states wrongly sent to Delta and vice versa. Some local government areas did not have result sheets” he said.
