Akwa Ibom INEC Office On Fire by Arysexy(m): 9:38am On Mar 08, 2019
Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) office in Ibesikpo Asutan Local Government Area of Akwa Ibom State has been gutted by fire, a day to a crucial governorship and house of assembly elections in the state.

The cause of the fire remains unknown for now.

A security guard who was on duty at the INEC office told PREMIUM TIMES the fire started around 2 a.m. on Friday.

“We heard an explosion inside the building, when we rushed to check what it was, we saw flames of fire coming from one of the rooms,” the guard said.

“We raised alarm for help, and then we started fighting the fire, using water and sand. But it was too much for us.”

A section of the building still smouldered and election materials apparently evacuated from the burnt building, were scattered around the premises, when a PREMIUM TIMES reporter visited the scene.

Several card readers meant for use in the Saturday’s elections have been destroyed by the fire, PREMIUM TIMES learnt.

It is unclear how the incident would affect the conduct of the elections.

The Resident Electoral Commissioner (REC), Mike Igini, is said to have visited the scene to ascertain the extent of the damage.

It is very obvious Oshiomole and Akpabio imported thugs have started their mission.

Plan is to disrupt d Akwaibom election, and reschedule it for another time and Osun Abracadabra is done in conjunction with security help.

We are watching as APC destroys our democracy

I suspect it is arson planned to destroy documents used during the last presidential and mass elections to cover up how akpabio and Buhari were rigged out

So, this is how Akpabio wants to remain relevant in Akwa Ibom after his colossal loss? An Osun cannot work in AKS.

Emmanuel Udom is blessed and no devil and APC can curse.

Party of desperation.

Party that has money for deception.

Party that claims to fight Korruption, yet they are benefiting from the korrupt act.

Party that threatens the lives of citizens.

Lie lie party..

None of them have been brought to justice.

You all know this particular political party that does all these things..
