The Electoral Commission [EC] has postponed the programme for Election if Special Interest Groups committees from village to national level, 2020.
A March 23 press release says the EC was scheduled to commence the nomination of candidates in April 2020.

He added: “The commission regrets the inconvenience caused to all the concerned parties.”
