Smart card reader has rejected the thumbprint of Gov. Seriake Dickson of Bayelsa, amidst reports of delays in the arrival of election materials in some parts of the state.

Dickson was however allowed to vote at Ward 2 unit 5 in Orerewari, Toru Orua, Sagbama Local Government Area at about 10.35 am after several unsuccessful trials on the card reader.

The governor was allowed to vote after his Permanent Voter Card (PVC) was read manually and his name, signature and phone number were documented.

Speaking after voting, Dickson noted that the failure of the smart card to read his thumbprint was not new as it had occurred in the 2015 elections.

He said that despite earlier complaints to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) the glitches with the card reader had persisted.
