The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has released its report on the Supreme Court-ordered delineation of wards and polling units in Warri Federal Constituency, Delta State, bringing months of controversy and agitation over the exercise to a close.

The report was presented during an emergency stakeholders’ meeting held in Asaba, attended by representatives of the Itsekiri, Ijaw and Urhobo ethnic nationalities, alongside top INEC officials.

The Resident Electoral Commissioner, Etekamba Unoren, presented the outcome of the delineation exercise.

According to the report, Warri North I, dominated by the Itsekiri, has 10 wards, while Warri North II, largely populated by the Ijaw, also has 10 wards.

In Warri South-West Local Government Area, INEC allocated seven wards to Warri South-West II, which is Itsekiri-dominated, and 13 wards to Warri South-West I, which is largely Ijaw.

For Warri South Local Government Area, INEC created a total of 20 wards, distributed among the three ethnic groups. The Urhobo got nine wards, the Itsekiri eight wards, while the Ijaw got three wards.

The report also indicated that the Urhobo and Ijaw communities will now share State Constituency I in Warri South, while the Itsekiri will occupy a separate state constituency.

INEC further disclosed that additional federal constituencies were proposed for the Ijaw and Itsekiri in Warri North and Warri South-West, subject to constitutional amendment and approval by the National Assembly.

The delineation exercise followed a Supreme Court order and had generated intense political and ethnic interest across Warri Federal Constituency before the release of the report.
