Speaking at the airport, EC officials confirmed that the ballot papers were received under tight security and will be transported to the Commission’s storage facilities for verification and safekeeping before being dispatched to various districts.
“This is part of our ongoing logistical preparations to ensure that all electoral materials are delivered on time and in accordance with the electoral roadmap,” the Commission said in a brief statement.
The arrival was overseen by representatives from the Electoral Commission, security agencies, and other relevant stakeholders to ensure transparency and accountability in the handling of the materials.
