The Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, has reacted to claims that it’s operating polling units in Niger Republic.<\/p>\n

However, chairman of the commission, Mahmood Yakubu<\/a> has refuted reports,describing it as baseless. <\/p>\n

Yakubu, who spoke through his Chief Press Secretary, Rotimi Oyekanmi, insisted that the Nigerian constitution does not allow the conduct of elections outside Nigeria\u2019s territory.<\/p>\n
