“Please see evidence that at Polling unit code 24-08-09-013 in Ikoyi, staff did not provide any ballot papers for House of Reps. Voters have been told to only vote for Senate and President. We will be closely watching the final tally to ensure that NO votes for House of Reps in this unit are counted. My people, pls repost”.
