Nigeria Decides 2019: Anxiety As Rain Disrupts Counting Of Votes In Imo State

Counting of votes was disrupted in Imo state by heavy downpour that continued late into the evening.

The rain that started at about 3.30pm, flooded most of the Polling stations with voters running for shelter.

INEC officials and the Adhoc Staff were forced to run away with the sensitive materials to protect them from the rain, especially in areas where there are no buildings to run into.

Voters waiting in the queue to be accredited were also dispersed by the rain.

At Emmanuel College, the entire Polling Units were submerged.

When The Nation visited the school housing about 6 Polling Units, drenched party agents were seen squatting in a corner, while INEC officials were taken refuge inside the few security vehicles.
