In some polling units, elections were cancelled. Therefore, the PDP’s state collation agent, Sunkanmi Oyejide, has called for a rerun. Oyejide stated this while speaking about the huge number of polling units in Ikenne, Ogun Waterside, and Remo-North. In this places, election was cancelled due to the non-function of the Bimodal Voters Accreditation System machines and violence.
