The distribution of election materials for the chairmanship and councillorship elections in Rivers State commenced on Saturday morning across all local government areas.
At a registration centre in Elekahia, Port Harcourt City LGA, scores of party agents and ad hoc personnel were seen as materials were moved to various polling units.
The exercise is being conducted by the Rivers State Independent Electoral Commission, which is responsible for local government elections across the 23 LGAs, 319 wards and 4,442 polling units in the state.
Saturday’s poll comes six months after the Supreme Court annulled the October 2024 council election in the state over violations of the Electoral Act.
