The electoral body also noted that of the 2,419,922 registered voters for the November 11 governorship election in the state, only 2,318,919 permanent voter cards were collected.

This was contained in a graphical representation posted on the INEC official Facebook account on Wednesday.

The PUNCH reports that there will be an off-cycle governorship and House of Assembly elections in Imo with two other states, Bayelsa and Kogi, on November 11 (Saturday).

According to INEC, 1,199,263 (49.9%) of the total registered voters are males, while the females are 1,220,659 (50.1 per cent).

The affected 38 polling units are spread across 13 local government areas in the state.

Also, youths and middle-aged groups make up 66 per cent of all registered voters.

According to the representation, youth in the 18-34 age bracket represent 801,278 registered voters (33 per cent); the middle-aged group in the 35-49 age bracket has 783,120 registered voters (32 per cent).

Others include the age bracket 50-67 for the elderly, which has 559,122 (23 per cent) registered voters, and the old age bracket less than 70 and above, which has 276,402 (12 per cent) registered voters.
