A group, Kogi Conscience Liberation Movement (KCLM), has called on the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to move all sensitive materials used during the recent off season governorship election from the state to Abuja where the Tribunal has relocated to.
The call was made by the National Secretary of the group, Comrade Okpanachi Jacob, during a press conference in Abuja on Friday.
Comrade Okpanachi cited safety concerns as a significant factor behind this request.
“Such materials are allegedly not safe in Kogi since the Tribunal is no longer sitting in the State. It is distressing to witness the erosion of democracy in our state,” he stated.
He further alleged a security breach in Kogi state, drawing attention to the need for immediate intervention from security agencies.
While articulating the necessity for an overhaul of the security apparatus in Kogi State, Jacob emphasized the need for security agents to refrain from becoming involved in politics to ensure the safeguarding of people’s lives.
He called on President Bola Ahmad Tinubu to unify the people of Kogi State and promote peace
