KSIEC Chairman, Lawal Alhassan, explained that the distribution process is part of the commission’s efforts to ensure a smooth election.

“I wish to let this all-important gathering know that, adequate arrangements were made by the commission and other security agencies to transport these materials to their respective destinations intact and safely.
“I equally want to inform you that all necessary arrangements were made for a hitch-free conduct of the exercise,” Alhassan noted.
