THE governorship candidate for the All Progressives Congress in the 2015 general election, Dr. Dakuku Peterside, has said that his party was ready for the rerun of elections annulled by the Appeal Court.
The Independent National Electoral Commission had declared that it was making arrangements to conduct 78 rerun elections in some parts of the country.
However, 38 out of the 78 reruns will hold in Rivers State as the Appeal Court had nullified some House of Assembly and National Assembly elections held in the state in 2015.
Specifically, the court had ordered that fresh elections should be conducted to determine who would occupy the 24 seats in State House of Assembly, 12 seats in the Federal House of Representatives.
Other areas where fresh elections would be conducted are three senatorial seats in the state.
