FG READS RIOT ACT TO TROUBLE MAKERS OVER GOVERNORSHIP; STATE ASSEMBLY POLLS

The National Security Adviser (NSA) Babagana Monguno has warned those planning to cause troubles before, during and after Saturday’s Governorship and Assembly elections to perish the thought.

Chairman of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) Prof Mahmood Yakubu also asked parties and political stakeholders to warn their supporters against any act of violence as an election is simply a contest and not a war.

Mongono and Yakubu spoke at a meeting of the Inter-Agency Consultative Committee on Election Security at the Commission’s headquarters on Tuesday.
