JUST IN: Senate Officially Declares Two Seats Vacant, Directs INEC to Conduct By-Elections Immediately
The Nigerian Senate has directed the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to conduct by-elections to fill the vacant Senate seats in Edo Central and Anambra South. This decision was announced by Senate President Godswill Akpabio during plenary on Tuesday, where he officially declared the two seats vacant.
The seat for Edo Central became vacant following the inauguration of Monday Okpebholo as Governor of Edo State in December 2024, after winning the gubernatorial election. In Anambra South, the vacancy arose after the death of Senator Ifeanyi Ubah in July 2024. INEC is now expected to schedule by-elections to fill both positions in accordance with the directive.
