The Inspector-General of Police, IGP Mohammed Adamu, has ordered the restriction of vehicular movement from 11:59 PM on Friday, October 9 to 6 pm on Saturday, October 10, 2020, in Ondo State.

The order is part of efforts by the Force to ensure effective coordination of public order and safety during the Saturday’s Governorship election. ​

The IGP reiterates that the vehicular restriction order, among other things, is aimed at preventing political actors and trouble-makers from freely engaging in unpatriotic acts such as the circulation and use of illicit arms and hard drugs, movement of political thugs from contiguous states to Ondo State, and disruption of the electoral processes.

The IGP calls on residents of the State to go out in their numbers on the day of the election and exercise their franchise. He assures that adequate security arrangement has been put in place to secure the public space for the election.

Adamu however warns that anybody who engages in snatching of ballot boxes, vote buying, vote selling, hate speeches, and any other act capable of compromising the integrity of the electoral process will be brought to book.
