The Nigerian Police force public relations officer CSP. Olumuyiwa Adejobi says citizens should wait for INEC officials’ Pronouncements.
The Nigeria Police has observed the spreading or circulation of alleged election results on social media and other news platforms, which is contrary to the policy and guidelines of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).
The Nigeria Police Force has perceived this trend as a calculated attempt toat up the polity and possibly create post elections chaos. We regard this as a disservice, unpatriotic, and disinformation. The Nigeria Police hereby warns those who are spreading these alleged/fake election results to desist from such mischievous acts and wait patiently for INEC’s official results, which are authentic and tenable.
NAN gathered that the NPF urges Nigerians to remain calm, and go about their lawful engagements, while those who are billed to go to the polls today are requested to be orderly and law-abiding as “we have re-enforced our security strategies for the smooth conclusion of the 2023 General Elections,” NPF said.
