Dr Adah said that the commission was partnering with all the security chiefs in the state who have promised to mobilize enough personnel for the all important rerun election.

The state Resident Electoral Commissioner further communicated that for the fact that the election would conducted in limited places across the state, gives INEC more opportunities to post more security men to election units in order to maintain law and order on the election day.

I hope the police are not just there to make up the numbers because 10 policemen that are not properly equiped cannot stand the political thugs holding AK47
