Nigeria's Rivers State Going Back to the Ballot Box

Rivers State will be going back to the polls on December 10, to vote for representatives in the National Assembly (made up of the Senate and the House of Representatives). The state governorship election was marred by violence and vote count irregularities in 2015 and saw Governor Nyesom Wike dismissed by an elections tribunal. Despite this decision Wike remained in his position.
