The Sectored reenforcement team is independent of, and shouldn’t be confused with the standard deployment of two (2 ) unarmed Police personnel at each Pooling unit across the state as required by standard best practices. The arrangement was however made to cater for the event of an emergency, totally ruling out the possibility of an overwhelming security breach, as well as availing residents of an immediate response option.

Furthermore, towards ensuring security during the conduct of the Area Council Elections in the Federal Capital Territory, there will be restriction of movement from 12-midnight on Friday 11th Feb to 6pm on Saturday 12th Feb in Abuja.

The restriction however exempts students who are already scheduled to write their WAEC examination nationwide as well as other essential workers.

Adhere to restriction order and maintain situational awareness. Anyone who does not fall within any of these categories and are found wanting will be made to face the wrath of the Law.
