Itsekiri Leaders Reject INEC Delineation Report, Allege Constitutional Violations, Fault GIS Mapping

Leaders from the Itsekiri ethnic group in Warri have publicly rejected a recent INEC report outlining new ward, polling unit, and constituency boundaries, claiming the changes violate the constitution and criticizing the use of GIS mapping for the delineation process. Their opposition highlights concerns about fairness and representation in electoral reforms, which could have broader implications for future elections if not addressed. This move underscores the tension between electoral authorities and local ethnic leaders over perceived injustices in Nigeria's political landscape.
