ODIEC Postpones Ondo Local Government Election

The local government election in Ondo State fixed for December 2023 has been postponed.

The postponement was announced by the Ondo State Independent Electoral Commission (ODIEC).

The elections have been rescheduled to February 17, 2024.

This postponement was made known on Friday during a stakeholders meeting by the Chairman of the commission, Joseph Aremo.

The decision, he said, was reached following the non-compliance of 17 political parties to participate in the elections.

The shift is coming about six months before the December 16 earlier scheduled for the council elections.

Consequently, some activities pertaining to the exercise are rescheduled, especially the conduct of primaries by the political parties which will end on August 10, while the campaign by political parties will end midnight of February 15, 2024.
