The candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) for the Degema/Bonny federal constituency in the 2019 elections, Fubara Hart has praised the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) for the smooth conduct of the governorship and House of Assembly elections in Bonny Local Government Area.

Hart, a former Permanent Secretary in the State Government, was denied the opportunity to contest alongside all other candidates of the APC in Rivers State as the courts ruled against the conduct of the party’s congresses and primaries.

He, who told Kristina Reports that he voted in Unit 1, Ward 9 earlier in the day, described the election process as “very apt, very apt”.

“We voted peacefully. The process was very apt, very apt. I congratulate INEC for very good job. They have done marvelously well this time around,” he said.

The APC chieftain expressed satisfaction with the electoral process and large turnout of voters during the exercise.

“I am satisfied. The turnout was so encouraging, we have never had it like this before”.

He also commended the various political actors for conducting themselves well during the exercise, noting that “all the major players comported themselves”.
