SUPPLEMENTARY POLLS: IGP ORDERS RESTRICTION OF MOVEMENT ON ELECTION DAY, REITERATES BAN ON VIP AIDES, ESCORTS, STATE SECURITY OUTFITS

Urges Citizens to be Law Abiding, Assures of Unhindered Exercise of Franchise

Sequel to the forthcoming Supplementary Elections scheduled to hold on Saturday 15th of April, 2023, in twentwenty-three states of the Federation covering National Assembly, gubernatorial, and State Houses of Assembly elections in areas where they were not concluded during the previous General Elections, the Inspector-General of Police, IGP Usman Alkali Baba, CFR, has ordered the restriction of all forms of vehicular movement on roads, waterways, and other forms of transportation, from 12 am to 5 pm in all affected states with the exception of those on essential services such as INEC Officials, Electoral Observers, Accredited Media and Observers, Ambulances responding to medical emergencies, firefighters, etc.

Similarly, the IGP reiterates the ban on all security aides to VIPs and escorts from accompanying their principals and politicians to polling booths and collation centres during the election. State-established and owned security outfits/organizations, quasi-security units, and privately-owned guard and security outfits are also barred from participating in election security management.

The affected states comprise Adamawa, Kebbi, Sokoto, Zamfara, Akwa Ibom, Anambra, Bayelsa, Edo, Imo, Kano, Kogi, Oyo, Rivers, Taraba, Jigawa, Ebonyi, Ekiti, Kaduna, Niger, Ogun, Yobe, Katsina, and Enugu States.

The Inspector General of Police, therefore, urges all citizens to be law abiding during and after the elections even as he assures that all necessary security arrangements have been emplaced to ensure they exercise their franchise unhindered. He also urges the general public to contact the Nigeria Police Force Headquarters via 08033440189 (DIG Operations), 08033027731 (AIG FEDOPS), and 08034040439 (CP Elections), the ‘NPF Rescue Me App’ on Android and ios, and via the NPF Rescue Me Emergency Toll-free line on 08031230631, to request emergency security response. Similarly, other election situation room numbers which have been shared on Nigeria Police social media platforms will be repeatedly released by concerned State Police Commands for necessary emergency contact.

Very annoying corrupt system honestly...

Lol.

Just select the winner as usual, eye neck.

last time we checked , it was thugs and hoodlums who were restricting voters movement … even in the presence of police

we don’t want our women stabbed again in polling units…
tell yakubu to write and announce his result…

It’s well

It's painful the way Nigerians speak about their country! Even in exile the Israelites of old never ceased wishing peace for their homeland. Do we then think that it's the Ghanaians and the Koreans that would leave their countries aside and come to prop Nigeria up? Some Nigerians are very much like the unfortunate sword that shreds the scabbard or the broken arrow that pierces the quiver, thinking that it has no need for it now that it is broken. Positive and negative utterances work for both man and country, if we must know!

Na una sabi. Election that will still be flawed by fraudulent elements. What we have in Nigeria is selection not election

Something they will just announce their winner so the others can approach tribunal as normal, they want to waste funds and still end up announcing their winner, after which others will still approach tribunal 😏

Okay o

INEC has proven unworthy to conduct free and fair election in Nigeria.

It's shameful

Madness

Useless INEC.
When they will help Apc to rig again

i'll move around as i need. nobody can stop me

Just make sure your PU is also among the supplementary elections centers so that you can easily free yourself if apprehended and show them your voter's card.

Strong man is not above law. Let's be law abiding

Make IGP dey whine himself

INEC has shown so far how incompetent they can be! Corrupt lots

Elections that was supposed to be our civic responsibility, they made it become a slowpoke's idea all because they just want the people to appear to vote meanwhile their votes is a waste. Selection is the order, not election. So instead of bothering the people, just pick your selected candidates and swear them in and stop bothering us.

And by the way, how many people know there is any kind of election today?

CondenseMilk:

You would not believe me if I told you I'm just finding out there's election today. When I don dey prepare to go market. I'm still going regardless. No need, they already have the results

Movement or no movement you will still collect your bribe and rig the election like you did the first time, e nor go better for who curse this country. Politicians corrupt, police corrupt, Army corrupt, Inec corrupt, even the useless people selling their votes and future corrupt .

Shedrack777:
i'll move around as i need. nobody can stop me

Don't expect anyone to do, justice for shedrack777.

Abeg which states are affected by this oh??

Make I sabi where I dey mbok

It doesn’t add anything

All this shit does not change the iberiberism of INEC as a fraudulent Organisation and the generalised voters apathy everywhere except for those benefitting from it.

Obidients are law abiding

Buh Apc supporters are happy with the ongoings .
