The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) says that supplementary elections for some National Assembly positions in Rivers will hold on Saturday alongside the Governorship and State House of Assembly elections.
Edwin Enabor, the INEC Head of Voter Education and Publicity in Rivers, in a statement in Port Harcourt explained that the supplementary polls followed violence which occurred in the areas during the Presidential and National Assembly elections on Feb. 23.
Mr. Enabor called on all registered voters in the affected areas to come out en masse to vote for candidates of their choice.
The constituencies are Rivers East Senatorial District, Rivers West Senatorial District and Okrika/Ogu/Bolo Federal Constituency.
Others are Ikwere/ Emohua, Akuku-Toru/ Asari-Toru, Degema/ Bonny and Ahoada West/ Ogba- Egbema- Ndoni federal constituencies.
