Date: 2012-11-17

The Local Government Election Petitions Tribunal in Ilorin ,the Kwara State capital north central Nigeria has nullified eleven-councillorship election out of the twelve wards in Offa Local Government held on the 12th of January 2011.

Nullifying the election in Ilorin, a member of the three man Tribunal, Area Court Judge David Olorunnishola , said the election was nullified for non-compliance with the Electoral Act 2010 as amended.

Mr. Olorunnisola said the Kwara State Independent Electoral Commission only gave notice for a fourteen days bye-election instead of Ninety days re-run election as stipulated by the Local Government Electoral Law of 2010 as amended.

The Tribunal said the Councillorship Electoral in Offa was a re-run election of the aborted election of Two thousand and ten and not a bye-election.
