Traditional rulers in Delta State have appealed to the military and other security agencies not to turn the state into a theatre of war and stop disenfranchising Deltans under the guise of obeying orders from above.

Chairman of the state Council of Traditional Rulers and Obi of Owa, Dr. Emmanuel Efeizomor, in a statement, made the appeal on behalf of the traditional rulers in Asaba, the state capital.

Efeizomor said the call is coming against the backdrop of plan by the Federal Government to deploy military personnel during Saturday’s governorship election in the state.


He said Delta State had been a peaceful state, adding that the present and previous administrations had done a lot to achieve peace and ethnic harmony, which should not be truncated under whatever guise.

The monarch, who insisted that security agencies on election duty should adhere to the rules of engagement even as he charged the political gladiators to display maturity and play by the rules, said elections would come and go but Delta State would remain an indivisible political entity of the nation.

He said that eligible voters should be allowed to freely cast their votes for their choice candidates without any hindrance, adding that in every contest, there must be a winner and a loser.

Also, he enjoined the political class to adopt the spirit of sportsmanship and be magnanimous in victory.

The monarch, who charged the youths not to engage in any act capable of causing crisis and political violence before, during and after the elections, urged the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to be transparent.

APC WANT TO TAKE OVER DELTA BY FORCE

Reminds me of an election like that in one state. It was made public then that rigging was going on live and ballot boxes were snatched here and there and that no security agency was around to arrest the situation. The government was accused of calculated rigging by not involving security personnel to monitor the elections.
Now that military, police are involved we are crying out loud of soldiers voter victimization and intimidation

Ok

That was what you guys said when the president ordered the security agencies to brutally deal with ballot box snatchers. At the end of the day who were the ballot box snatchers? APC thugs. Did anything happen to them? Your guess is as good as mine.

That’s why there is an Election Petition Tribunal and The International Criminal Court for folks to press their rights at Law which is better than by force of arms

Stupid southerners, it is already a theater Of War...

My point is that it is wrong to use the security agencies to intimidate your opponents. Allow an equal playing field for all. How many thugs were arrested talk less of killed for snatching and burning ballot papers?

Those days a certain pastor would say "go and prosper." lol u must prosper by force.

Pdp under the godfather from Oghara has enslaved Deltans to the extent they dont know the difference between excellent performance and under performance by govt officials.

Apc is here to force u to prosper.

I am not a card carrying member of any political party. I deprecate thuggish tendencies and electoral malpractices. It is up to who witness such to press at law.

it's sensible to do, pdp have had it easy In these zones, nearly every other part of the country, can switch parties when voting but south south is always going pdp

Any reasonable government will want to change that for future elections


And these states are providing funds to keep pdp functioning
