The Independent National Electoral Commission
(INEC) has fixed Feb. 13 for the Demsa,
Lamurde and Numan Federal Constituency re-
run election in Adamawa.

This is contained in a statement signed by Mrs
Rifkatu Duku, Head of Information, Adamawa
INEC Office, and made available to News
Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Yola on Monday.

“The Independent National Electoral Commission
in the state wish to inform all stakeholders
about the re-run election for the Demsa,
Lamurde and Numan Federal Constituency in
Adamawa.

“The election is scheduled for Feb. 13, 2016,”
the statement read in part.

She said that the election, which is to take
place in Demsa, Lamurde and Numan local
government areas would hold in all the 30 wards
that made up the federal constituency.

The statement urged all stakeholders involved
to prepare for the election.

It could be recalled that in November last year a
Federal Court of Appeal sitting in Abuja nullified
the election of SDP’s Kwamoti Laori and
ordered for the re-run election.
