Edo 2024: State government worries over suspected thugs activities at INEC offices Tamarauemi Ebimini The Edo State government on Friday expressed concerns over the activities of suspected political thugs alleged to be moving to overrun the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) offices in some Local Government Areas in the State. The government also commended the military who it said stopped the suspected political thugs who were said to have tried to overrun the INEC office in Oredo Local Government Council in the state capital. Addressing newsmen in Benin, Edo State Commissioner for Communication and Orientation, Chris Nehikhare drew the attention of Nigerians and the international community to the move by political thugs to seize control of INEC Local Government Council offices across the state. He alleged that the suspected political thugs have taken over INEC offices in Oredo, Estako West, and Esan West Local Government Councils in a bid to hijack the process. According to him, “the soldiers repelled the thugs and the thugs have since moved across the road from the INEC facility” as he hailed the military for showing “character and discipline” said the soldiers successfully stopped the thugs from invading the INEC facility and urged the military to carry out similar actions across the other 17 LGAs. Nehikhare urged the people of Edo State to come out on Saturday and perform their duties as voters saying that “soldiers have recovered Oredo INEC Secretariat and the military is on top of their game protecting the people and INEC facility. “
