‘‘The two remaining State Assembly Election of Uba/Gaya and Nassarawo/Binyeri in Hong and Mayo-Belwa local government areas would be conducted on March 23.’’
Mr Gaidam said the Nassarawo-Binueri State Assembly election was deferred due to the death of the APC candidate before the election.
He said “the Uba/Gaya State Assembly election could not be concluded on March 9 due to cancellation of results in some polling units.’’
Mr Gaidam also said of the eight seats for the House of Representatives, both APC and PDP each won four seats.
He said PDP got two senators from Adamawa Northern and Southern Senatorial Districts while APC won Adamawa Central.
