The Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, has fixed November 30 for the conduct of the supplementary election in Kogi West Senatorial District to settle the electoral war between Dino Melaye and Smart Adeyemi.
INEC says it came to the decision after its meeting at its headquarters in Abuja.
On the same day, the umpire will also conduct a re-run election in Ajaokuta Federal Constituency.
The Commission could not conclude the election to fill the senatorial seat, after the returning officer, Professor Olayinde Lawal announced that the poll was inconclusive.
He explained that the canceled votes were more than the margin of lead between the leading candidates Mr. Smart Adeyemi of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and Senator Dino Melaye of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
