The Police has reacted to news on social media about the alleged murder of Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) Chairman, Prof Mahmood Yakubu, in Anambra.

There are claims that Yakubu was assassinated today by unknown gunmen, a deadly gang that has been terrorizing the South-East region.

A statement Tuesday night by DSP Nkeiruka Nwode, debunked the circulating information.

Nwode is the Zonal PRO/Head of Police Media Team for the governorship election scheduled to hold on Saturday November 6.

The officer said Yakubu held a stakeholders meeting in Awka today and stated the preparedness of the commission to hold peaceful election in the state.

“Security agencies are ever ready to enforce their statutory responsibility to ensure hitch free exercise”, the PRO noted.

The police appealed for caution by members of the public and appealed to internet users to avoid contents that do not reflect the current state of security.

“The CP want to state unequivocally that the publication is false and absolutely misleading.

“It is a figment of imagination deliberately orchestrated by the mischief makers to cause unnecessary tension and chaos in the polity”, the statement added.

Juliusmalema:
Purveyors of fake news

We know them. They are now spreading all forms of fake News, threatening messages and all evil fabrications.

Igbos have now made once a serious agitation to be a joke of 21st century courtesy of one Fendi Aro man Nnamdi Kanu.

May we never experience such level of brainwash, propaganda and scam again in future.

May we never again be part of Igbos merchandise.

the day u stop mentioning Igbos is the day u will av inner peace

I have found inner peace but Igbos haven't.

They are still bitter.

Good to know

The ipob terrorists are using nairaland to carryout their disinformation campaign and there seem to be no attempt to stop that. This terrorists are abusing the privilege of social media. Imagine after they murder people they will come on social media and blame other people for their evil actions. That you escape appropriate sanctions here does not mean the law cannot reach you.

They are using the same tactics alqaeda used to provoke sectarian conflict in Iraq by deliberately attacking other ethnicities they seek to provoke retaliations. Now they are desperately using fake news to stoke tension and hate. You will fail like your rapist fendi wearing donation stealing rogue is.

Yobabad:
Whatever, is he biger than those Yor.uba people Fulani killed in lbarapa

The people who wanted to kill him and pin it on IPOB released the news too early

That's why it was foiled

He is lucky
