Two ballot boxes from one of the polling stations at the Zabzugu Constituency in the Northern Region have gone missing.
Counting of the ballots in the polling centre stalled because of the lighting issues, correspondents say.
The presiding officer of the polling centre, together with polling agents, under police escort, deposited the ballot boxes at the collation centre.
But when all interested persons gathered Saturday for the tallying of the results, electoral officers announced that the ballot boxes of one of the 56 polling stations in the Zabzugu Constituency could not be found.
The District Police Commander for the area admitted escorting the ballot to the collation centre.
He said the police, together with EC officials, were searching for the missing ballot boxes.
Despite this, voters, correspondents say, have remained calm.
