The national commissioner said INEC may take a decision on when to conduct the supplementary elections in 13 states on Saturday.
He said: “The commission may take a decision on Saturday on the exact date for the conduct of supplementary elections.
“We must first harvest the delimitation details of all the places where supplementary elections have been indicated. We have elections in Plateau, Imo, Anambra, Kebbi, Adamawa, Sokoto and other places.
