Sensitive materials for Saturday’s off-cycle governorship election in Ondo State have been delivered to the Central Bank of Nigeria’s (CBN) office in Akure, the Ondo State capital. 

The materials, including ballot papers and result sheets, were delivered by the Nigerian Air Force and received by officials from the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) under tight security on Monday. Armed personnel from various security agencies ensured a secure transfer of the items.
