He stated that the Commission is already considering possible date early next year for the proposed date for the local government election in the State, hence the proposed amount to be captured in the 2021 Appropriation law.

The DSIEC boss said the thirty two point five cap limit given to the Commission to spend as capital expenditure for 2021 was inadequate and stressed the need for increase amongst other demands.
