Dau 1 ward in Toungo LGA.
Secretary of Emirate Council of Lamido
Adamawa used Police from the Lamido’s Palace
to arrest a CPC agent, Alhaji Aliu and took him
to the state police CID. Observers believe his

malpractices. The CPC agent was however
released hours later by the police authorities
without any charges.
At Yola North LGA, Gwadabawa ward housing 3
polling units, PDP agents had seen bribing
Policemen on duty resulting in the police
dispersing CPC agents and harassing voters to
vote a particular party.
In Toungo LGA, Dau 1 ward, comprising 9 poling
units, INEC official only brought ballot papers
without ballot boxes. CPC and ACN agents
refused to participate until boxes were made
available. Consequently, CPC is claiming victory
based on the number of its supporters that
turned up to cast their votes.
Also at Kiri ward 004, also in Toungo, no voting
materials as at 4 pm. CPC state chairman
Ibrahim Waziri reported the Toungo issue to the
INEC REC and he replied that the non

Mr. Yuguda is Madagali Local Government
Chairman (PDP). He went to the polling units
packed all the voters cards cast and took
everything to the Madagali Police Station when
there was no violence.”
