Labour Party (LP) Senatorial candidate, Mr Labaran Maku, has called for the cancellation of the Nasarawa North bye-election over alleged widespread irregularities.

Maku, a former Minister of Information, made the call on Sunday during a press briefing at his country home in Wakama, Nasarawa Eggon Local Government Area.

He said he called to become necessary in view of the non-adherence to electoral laws by officials of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) during the exercise.
