Ibui said that board will be seeking assistance from the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) to either supervise the elections or assist in recruiting qualified election officers.
Party Executive Director Yussuf Aboubakar said that the party had already constituted its elections board which will be led by former LSK chairman Kenneth Akide among other individuals termed as ‘highly competent’.
