Read Time:1 Minute, 1 Second
For Saturday’s Local Government (LG) election, Ondo State police have declared that motorcyclists and cars would not be allowed to travel between 6 a.m. and 4 p.m.
In a statement released Thursday in Akure by CSP Funmilayo Odunlami, the command spokeswoman, state Commissioner of Police (CP) Mr. Wilfred Afolabi stated that the decision was for security reasons.
He claims that commuters who could have a need to use the state as a route are aware of the limitations in advance, allowing them to modify their plans before the day of the event.
“However, security personnel, health workers, firefighters, and other essential service providers are allowed free movement to carry out their duties. Cases of emergency are also considered for movement.
“We urge all eligible voters to abide by the rules guiding the electoral process while carrying out their civic duties,” he said.
“All intending miscreants who may want to cause mayhem on election day are warned to stay clear.
“All machineries are in place to nip any untoward act as they raise their ugly heads,” he said.
The CP also said that adequate security had been put in place for both human and material resources to ensure smooth passage of the electoral process. (NAN
