Local observers have complained that there was no security virtually in all the polling units in Ekwulobia and Isuofia Wards where they have monitored.

They also complained that because of that polling officials of the Independent National Electoral Commission were nowhere to be found.

Speaking with newsmen, Chief Chike Anyaonu, who spoke on behalf of local observers from Zyhara Foundation, said the lack of regular police and other security agents in all the polling units is impeding the election security.

“In all the polling units my team visited this morning, there is nowhere regular policemen were seen and because of that, INEC polling officials refused to bring down electoral materials from their vehicles,” he said.
