Abubakar stated that those arrested were persons that violated the movement restriction order and other offences that contravened the Electoral Act.

He mentioned that the security agents recorded cases and effected the arrest of persons that engaged in vote buying, destruction of ballot boxes, thuggery, threats and inciting public disturbances at polling units, among others during the elections.

Abubakar, a deputy superintendent of police
said:

“All the electoral offences among them were fully investigated and transferred to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) for prosecution.

“While others that contravened the penal code have been charged to court by the Police. However there are others that are still under investigation.”

According to him, the Commissioner of Police in the state, Muhammed Gumel warned the public from allowing themselves get involved in any action that is against the law.

The police commander said:

“I enjoin all members of the public to be wary of allowing themselves, their loved ones or their political party affiliates from getting involved in actions that are totally repugnant to natural justice, equity and good conscience of law.

“This is especially in view of the forthcoming supplementary elections to be scheduled in Sokoto State.

“More so, I want to restate the commitment of the security agencies toward the protection of lives and property.”

Abubakar added that Gumel further promised to deal with all elements of insecurity before, during and after the forthcoming supplementary elections in the state.
