In a critical move to uphold the integrity of the electoral process, the Nigeria Police Force (NPF) has mandated its operatives deployed for the Ondo governorship election to impose restrictions on unauthorized movement at various collation centres. This directive comes from the Deputy Inspector-General of Police in charge of the election, DIG Sylvester Abiodun Alabi, as counting of votes commenced across the state.

In a statement issued on Saturday by the Force Public Relations Officer, Olumuyiwa Adejobi, it was revealed that DIG Alabi undertook extensive inspections of polling units and collation centres following the conclusion of voting. These inspections are designed to ensure that all voting materials are accounted for and that the counting and collation of votes occur in a transparent and orderly manner.

“Our officers are instructed to implement stringent safety protocols to mitigate any potential disruptions or irregularities that may undermine the integrity of the elections,” Adejobi articulated. Furthermore, he underscored the Force’s unwavering commitment to establishing adequate security measures that would facilitate a free and fair electoral process.

Inspector-General of Police, Kayode Egbetokun, has also reached out to the public, reassuring the citizens of Ondo State of their safety and emphasizing that the highest standards of security will be maintained throughout the electoral process and beyond. This commitment reflects the NPF’s dedication to fostering a transparent and credible democratic environment.
