“Following the discharge of the injunction which stopped the governorship supplementary election in Adamawa state in the case filed by the MRDD, INEC will now conduct the election on Thursday, 28th March 2019 from 8a.m to 2 p.m in 29 Registration Areas (RAs), 44 Polling Units across 14 LGAs with a total number of 40, 988 registered voters,” the statement from INEC on Tuesday reads.
