The distribution of sensitive materials to toll 33 local government areas in Oyo State by the Independent National Electoral Commission got underway on Thursday.
In Ibadan, the state capital, the distribution took place at the Central Bank of Nigeria in the presence of political party representatives.
According to reports, the exercise validated the commission’s readiness to hold the 2023 general election beginning on February 25 and continuing on March 11.
The procedure started at two in the morning, according to Adeniran Tella, the resident electoral commissioner in the state.
On Friday, Tella promised citizens that the state will hold credible, fair, and respectable elections while announcing that the materials would be delivered to polling places and registration area centers would be activated.
Idowu Awokoya and Tajudeen Olanife, members of two separate political parties in the state, expressed satisfaction with the process.
