The Akwa Ibom State Independent Electoral Commission
(AKISIEC) has fixed November 11, 2017 as the day for the Local Government
Elections in the state. This was made known by the Chairman of the electoral
body, Mrs Gloria Ukpong during a meeting with top political stakeholders across
all the registered political parties in the state. There have been growing
agitations for the governor to conduct LG elections two years after he was
elected into office. The tenure of the current transition committees is
expected to expire on Monday 3rd July, 2017 but it is believed the
tenure will be extended by another six months.
