The Independent National Electoral Commission in Bayelsa State has raised alarm that 63 of the card readers it deployed for presidential and National Assembly elections are still missing.

The commission appealed to those in possession of the missing card readers to return them before Saturday’s elections.

The News Agency of Nigeria recalls that INEC on Monday announced that 63 smart card readers used during the February 23 Presidential and National Assembly elections were missing.

Wilfred Ifogah, Head of Department, INEC Voter Education and Publicity, told NAN on Tuesday that the affected local government areas where the card readers were used included Brass, Sagbama, Southern-Ijaw, Nembe and Yenagoa.
