PHOTOS: Gunmen Attack Kogi REC’s Residence

Armed men attacked the official residence of the Kogi Resident Electoral Commissioner, Hale Gabriel Longpet, in Lokoja on Friday morning.

The attackers engaged security personnel in a gun battle, causing property damage.

No lives were lost in the incident. This comes two days after a mob barricaded the INEC office in Lokoja, preventing staff from accessing the premises.

The INEC Chairman's Chief Press Secretary called for a thorough investigation and enhanced security protection for personnel and assets in Kogi State.
