BAUCHI — The Inter-Party Advisory Council (IPAC), Bauchi State chapter, has commended the peaceful conduct of the 2026 local government elections held across the state’s 20 Local Government Areas on Monday, August 17.
In a statement issued after the polls, the council described the exercise as a demonstration of democratic practice, praising what it called the level playing field provided for the 15 political parties that participated in the elections.
IPAC attributed the peaceful conduct of the elections to what it described as the political inclusiveness and democratic disposition of the Bauchi State Governor.
Speaking on behalf of the participating political parties, the council expressed appreciation to the governor for creating an environment that allowed the election to take place peacefully and competitively.
