This was following a motion raised by a Lawmaker, Hassan Saleh, on tuesday, under matters of urgent national importance.

Mr Saleh said many persons, who had previously registered in different states, did not find their names in their registers at the points of collection.

Mr Saleh representing Ado/Okpokwu Federal Constituency of Benue State also noted that machines deployed for the exercise failed to work in many units making it impossible for many voters to meet up with the last extension of June 3 given by the electoral commission.
