Protesters storm Delta INEC office over alleged irregularities in Warri delineation

More than 200 Urhobo and Itsekiri residents of Warri South protested outside the INEC office in Asaba, accusing the commission of adding fictitious names, unfamiliar wards and disputed polling units to the electoral delineation. Itsekiri leader Samuel Meyiwa said stakeholders had agreed that fictitious names and addresses would be removed, but the list later released by INEC did not reflect that agreement. Urhobo representative Eforele Marcus also challenged the unfamiliar ward names and additional polling units, saying they could harm his community’s political representation. The protesters called on INEC to correct the alleged errors and reflect Warri South’s ancestral settlements.
