Counting for Eastern Highlands Province has been deferred to Monday, July 18, 2022.
Province Election Manager, Steven Kaupa has confirmed that with this newsroom.
He explained that the delay was with the transporting of ballot boxes from some parts of Okapa and Oburawonenara not reaching the counting centre yet.
Kaupa said these are remote areas only accessible by chopper.
However, he is optimistic that all the ballot boxes will be transported to the counting centre at the National Sports Institute this weekend.
