deploying our officials as the situation demanded. Where there were issues of security, our men were able to restore calm.”
The State Director of State Security Services (SSS), Andrew Iorkyar told The Nation that some polling booths requested extra security in Osogbo.
“The election has been peaceful, some polling units demanded for extra security because of the large turn- out of people and we have provided security,” he said.
In Ward 4, unit 1, voting commenced later as the voters complained about the slow process of election. One voter told the Nation, “The electoral officers are very slow they seem not to know how to handle the electoral process.”
