The decision by the Independent national electoral commission to create additional polling units in the country before the 2015 vgeneral elections is generating so much controversy with several groups accusing the commission of favouring the north of the country over the south. Now, how you want to ask? Well, the reason is that of the 30, 027 polling units the commission plans to create, just slightly over 8,000 will be created in the south while the remaining will be in the north. Now, despite INEC’s explanations that people should not just look at the numbers but the details, quite a number of groups have been protesting. One of them is Aka Ikenga, the Igbo socio-political group which is asking INEC to go ahead with the creation of the additional polling units.
