The provincial election for Duidui Ward 8 in South Guadalcanal Constituency is set for 16 July, 2024.
Chief Electoral Officer, Jasper Highwood Anisi announced the date on Tuesday.
Mr Anisi explained the decision to postpone the election from the initial date on 10th July 2024 is due to bad weather conditions.
