HAPPENING NOW! Enugu LG Poll: Voters Desert Polling Units
Some voters who turned out to cast their votes for the Enugu State Local Government Election, on Saturday in Enugu, angrily left the polling units due to late arrival of voting materials.
According to reportss, that some party agents pleaded with voters not to be discouraged as the exercise would soon commence.
At Igbariam Primary School and Emmanuel Church polling units, Achara Layout, in Enugu South, Umuchigbo Nike Ward 1 in Enugu East, Enugu North Ward 11, some of the voters left the venue after waiting for over three hours.

Some of the voters, who expressed disgust over the situation, wondered why ENSIEC should fix election when they were not ready for the exercise.
Mrs Stella Agbo of Awgu Ward 1, said she came out as early as 8a.m. to cast her vote and once it is 1p.m. she would go home, if there was no improvement.
In the same vein, Mr Kingsley Ogbonna from Ugwuleshi Awgu said he would go home if there was no sign of arrival of materials.
The Collation Officer for Achara Layout, Mr Paschal Obi, however, appealed to voters to exercise patience as ENSIEC was doing its best to remedy the situation.

How sure are we that Biafra will be restored if we boycott anambra state election because buhari might rig to plant APC candidate as next governor of anambra state by then more hardship and poverty will attack anambra state. IPOB believe that boycott of election in anambra state will bring Biafra then IPOB should deploy international media, international logistics and observers from EU, UN and Whitehouse to monitor each polling votes units of each ward in every anambra local government and schools to avoid rigging of election, monitor the number of those that voted if the are up to 60% or below 60%, monitor any casualties by police, army on Biafran civilians who are observing sit at home, monitor INEC offials and the number of those that cast their votes in INEC ballot box, monitor the number of wards and local government where their is low turn out of voters registrations, monitor the number of voters present at the ward. the international media, EU and UN observers should move with their camera to record numbers of stolen ballot box during voting in order to avoid rigging and making it as if people came out to votes. the international community should observe if the required 60% of election boycott and sit at home really worked, by then if we succeed let their be breaking news to CNN, al Jazeera media, UN, EU, Whitehouse to fix date for referendum with immediate effect.
