Party agents stationed at various polling units across Shomolu Local Government Area have reported low turnout of voters in the ongoing local government election.
According to situation reports gathered from multiple units, many residents have stayed away from the polls, leading to visibly scanty voting areas. The party representatives attributed the voter apathy to a lack of public awareness and general disinterest in local governance.
While acknowledging that the electoral process has remained peaceful and orderly, they expressed concern over the low participation and urged the electoral body and stakeholders to intensify voter education in future elections.
