The Imo State Police Command Thursday arrested over 180 bandits with fake voters' cards, official identity cards of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), and independent observer identity cards. The hoodlums, who were heading for Anambra State ahead of the Saturday governorship election, confessed that they were coming from Osun State before they were arrested around 7.30p.m. in a hotel in Owerri, the Imo state capital, while waiting to link up with their contact persons in Anambra State. Items recovered from them include two pump action riffles, live ammunition, 15 buses and other incriminating materials. Although the suspects could not mention the political party they were hired to work for, it was gathered that they were paid over N50 million to rig in favour of one of the candidates. Parading the suspects, the Commissioner of Police, Muhammad Katsina, warned that Imo State will no longer be used as a breeding ground for criminal activities, adding that those arrested would be prosecuted. He said the heavily armed hoodlums were in the state to cause breach of peace, stating that the operation against miscreants will continue unabated. He further warned that the peace and security the command had worked so hard to attain will not be compromised by any politician no matter how highly placed. However, one of the suspects, Salawo Ayodele, said that they were members of Justice and Equity Organisation and were mandated to monitor the Anambra election. He disclosed that they were given N10,000 each as feeding money for the operation. APC tins 1 Like |

It is obvious that the story does not add up. For goodness sake, why did they pass Anambra just to lodge in Imo state? I thought observers are meant to be on ground before the election in order to monitor movement of electoral materials. And why are the observers from a particular state? Is 180 not to much to observe an election? An organisation without any identity. Anyway, the truth with surely prevail. 5 Likes |

LIVE AMMUNITIONS 6. INCRIMINATING MATERIALS (NGIGE posters as reported on TV) INDEED THEY ARE ACCREDITED APC RIGGING OBSERVERS FOUND IN APC CONTROLLED STATE OF IMO. Police arrest 180 thugs with weapons Meanwhile, reports reaching LEADERSHIP suggest that the Anambra poll may yet be marred by violence: the Imo State police command yesterday arrested about 180 armed hoodlums carrying fake voter cards, official identity cards of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), and independent observer identity cards. The suspected bandits, who were said to be heading for Anambra State ahead of tomorrow’s governorship election, confessed that they were coming from Osun State before they were arrested around 7:30pm by the crack team of the Imo State police command in a hotel in Owerri, while waiting to link their contact persons in Anambra State. According to the police, items recovered from them include two pump-action rifles, live ammunition rounds, 15 buses and other incriminating materials. The suspects could not mention the political party they were hired to work for, even as LEADERSHIP gathered that they were paid over N50 million to rig the elections in favour of one of the candidates. Parading the suspects, the commissioner of police, Muhammad Katsina, warned that the state would no longer be used as breeding ground for criminal activities, stressing that those arrested would face the law. Katsina said that the heavily armed hoodlums were in the state to cause breach of the peace, and that the operation against miscreants would continue without hindrance. One of the suspects who identified himself as Salawo Ayodele said that they were members of Justice and Equity Organisation and were hired to monitor the election in Anambra State.

KwoiZabo: The Imo State Police Command Thursday arrested over 180 bandits with fake voters' cards, official identity cards of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), and independent observer identity cards. The story doesn't add up and judging by the fact that the police have not properly invesitgate their claim as election observers before rushing to press with exhibits obviously planted as usual, I have no doubt that the whole show is politically motivated. However, these election 'observers' must be very stupeed to even thought of going for such a risky venture for a paltry sum of 10000 naira. |

The Commissioner of Police Imo State CP Mohammed Kastina just finished his briefing with pressmen this evening wherein he informed them that the command arrested 181 youths mostly from the southwest part of Nigeria (Unconfirmed) in a popular hotel (Disney Hotel) In Owerri Imo State Capital. Among items found on the men were said to be many Ngige 2014 posters (Unconfirmed), fake INEC Election Observer Cards, Voters Card, 12 Vehicles etc. Interviewing them, most of them said they came from Osun State(Unconfirmed). They said they were given N10,000 each with a promise of more monies in return after the elections. They said they were told to move into Owerri for their accommodation, hospitality and camping pending the last night to the Anambara Guber polls. Amongst those arrested are two members of the Imo Security Network in their uniforms and with their 2 Pump Action Rifles and live cartridges. Addressing newsmen, the Imo CP wondered why people from the west going to Anambara would be found in Imo State? He wondered that Imo was not holding any elections and have no reason hosting such youths from other states. CP Mohammed Kastina reiterated that Imo State would not be used to perpetuate violence or thuggery in the name of politics.. He said the command is poised to maintain peace in the state and would deal with any threat no matter how highly placed. As at the time of filling this news, there are unconfirmed reports that another mass of youths are camped in a prominent hotel owned by a highly placed government officials and are also bound for Anambara State to aide the APC candidate (Unconfirmed) in the Anambara guber election. 3 Likes |

If this piece of information is confirmed to be true, then my faith in Seun and his Crew has been lost completely. I am still wondering why the thread of yesterday did not make front page, and this press briefing did. There is nothing wrong if both thread are put in the front page, at least it would give readers the opportunity to read from both sides of the story. This is bad and it is a wrong precedence being set by Seun and his goons. 3 Likes |

I wonder how some people think unintelligently. FYI I'm not affiliated to any political party but it's obvious when the truth is being suffocated. If the 180 persons arrested had the intentions of distabilizing the election tomorrow, will they need only two guns? I wonder how the police expect them to share it? The two vigilante arrested with the guns are certified security outfit in Imo, why mix up both issues? Whoever sent the police to make those arrests definitely doesn't want well meaning Nigerians to see the evil they'll do on election day. The police has a long standing pedigree of corruption, so does PDP. Quote me, these people would be released FREE and without any charges after the election. Foolish Political Nation! 2 Likes |
