ASABA—AHEAD of  tomorrow’s presidential and National Assembly elections, Governor Emmanuel Uduaghan of Delta State  has urged Deltans to conduct themselves lawfully and avoid any action capable of leading to a breach of the peace.

He said that there was the need for the people to conduct themselves orderly to avoid the wrath of the law and security agents that will be on duty on election days.

Uduaghan reiterated that the PDP in the state has no agreement with any other political party and urged members of the PDP to vote only for PDP candidates in the elections.

Speaking at a PDP stakeholders meeting in Asaba, he said that everybody must conduct themselves orderly as the government will not tolerate anything that will lead to a breach of the peace in the state.

“The Police has a firm directive from their headquarters that anybody seen around the vicinity of the Central Bank of Nigeria, CBN, apart from accredited party agents, should be arrested as electoral materials will be moved from the CBN office to the local government areas and from 8 a.m., tomorrow, materials will be at the polling units where accreditation will start by 8a.m.

“I don’t want any of you to fall victim of this security arrangement. It is necessary we conduct ourselves orderly and peacefully.

“The presidential election is coming up tomorrow and I want to brief you so that we will not make mistakes. The Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, is using the card reader to identify the owners of the permanent voters cards, PVCs. There will be three boxes at the polling points, and three ballot papers. Please get it right for us not to get confused because, if you put the vote for the Senate in the presidential ballot box, it may be declared invalid,” he stated.
