Adamawa State Independent Electoral Commission (ADSIEC) has fixed Dec. 4, for the local government council elections in the state.
Mr. Daniel Zira, spokesman of the commission confirmed the development on Thursday in Yola.
Zira said the commission shifted the election earlier slated for Nov. 27, due to political parties activities which included their congresses.
“Adamawa State Independent Electoral Commission (ADSIEC) has fixed Dec. 4, for the local government council elections in the state.
