Some of the stranded voters at the effected centers who expressed  dissatisfaction with the situation, blamed INEC for what they saw as poor arrangement.



The INEC officials were seen doing their best to ensure that the affected Bvas were put into uses, and they succesfully rectified and over come the problem and voting started immidiately.
