As local government elections hold today, the Imo State Commissioner of Police, Aboki Danjuma, has called on members of the public to display civility by shunning acts capable of disrupting the electoral process during and after the exercise.
The police also announced that restriction on vehicular movement would be enforced from midnight (Friday) to 6pm on Saturday, allowing only essential services, such as medical practitioners, fire service, authorised media and accredited electoral observers to operate in order to facilitate a smooth voting process.
A statement by the Police Public Relations Officer, Henry Okoye, stressed that the commissioner has implemented comprehensive security measures for the local government council elections scheduled for today.
He highlighted that the measures were designed to ensure a credible, transparent and safe electoral process across all the 27 local government areas.
