THE logjam over the bid by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to create additional 57, 023 polling units from the existing 119, 973 across the country appears settled.
Credible sources told Nigerian Tribune that the stage is apparently set for the exercise after futile manoeuverings by some influential forces to truncate the move, ostensibly for narrow interests.
It will be the first successful exercise by the electoral body in the country in 25 years barring any further arm-twisting and gerrymandering over the crucial issue.
Multiple sources disclosed that the INEC resolved to adopt a lower and upper limit threshold in the quest to create the additional polling units spread across the country.
