Deputy Inspector-General of Police overseeing the Ondo State Gubernatorial Elections, DIG Sylvester Abiodun Alabi, has made a significant move to ensure the integrity and transparency of the electoral process.

As the polls draw to a close, he has conducted rigorous inspections of polling units and collation centers across the state.

According to the Force Police Public Relations Officer, ACP Olumuyiwa Adejobi, these inspections aimed to guarantee that all voting materials are accounted for and that the counting and collation of votes are conducted in a fair and orderly manner.

The DIG further charged the officers deployed for election security to ensure a constant state of vigilance, restricting any unauthorized movement of persons in and out of the collation centres.

Officers are to enforce strict safety protocols to prevent any potential disruptions or irregularities that could compromise the integrity of the elections.

The Nigeria Police Force reiterates its commitment to implementing adequate security measures to ensure the electoral process is conducted freely and fair.

The Inspector-General of Police, IGP Kayode Adeolu Egbetokun, further assured members of the public, particularly the good citizens of Ondo State, of the highest standard of security throughout the electoral process and even afterward.
