ONDO 2020: IGP ORDERS RESTRICTION OF VEHICULAR MOVEMENT

Mohammed Adamu, Nigeria’s Inspector General of Police (IGP), has ordered the restriction of vehicular movement from 11:59 pm on Friday, to 6 pm on Saturday, in Ondo State.


This directive is to ensure effective coordination of public order and safety during the gubernatorial election slated for Saturday, October 10, 2020.


Frank Mba, Force Spokesperson, made this known in a statement made available to newsmen in Abuja, on Friday, October 9, 2020.


“The vehicular restriction order, among other things, is aimed at preventing political actors and trouble-makers from freely engaging in unpatriotic acts – circulation and use of illicit arms and hard drugs, movement of political thugs from contiguous States to Ondo State and disruption of the electoral processes, etc – which are inimical to the dictates of the electoral laws,” part of the statement reads.


Adamu urged residents of the State to go out en masse on the election day and exercise their rights.


He also assured that adequate security arrangement has been emplaced to secure the public space for the election.


The IGP noted that the order was part of the sacrifices being put in place to ensure and sustain democracy in the country


He warned that anybody who caught engaging in snatching of ballot boxes, vote-buying, vote-selling, hate speeches, and any other act capable of compromising the integrity of the electoral process would be brought to face the wrath of the law.
