In Ogun, the state police command arrested a man (names withheld) for unlawful possession of several Permanent Voter Cards in Abeokuta during the governorship and House of Assembly elections.

The Police Public Relations Officer in the state, Muyiwa Adejobi, who confirmed the incident, said the command was investigating the matter.

Also, there were reports of snatching of ballot boxes in various parts of the state.

According to sources, at Westley School, Unit 002, Ward 009, two men absconded after being caught with stolen PVCs .

But, the police said they had not been informed about the incident.
Meanwhile, a fight broke out at Ward 7, Unit 20, Oba, in Obafemi Owode Local Government Area of the state as PDP agents were alleged to have been inducing voters with money while they were on the queue to vote. A PDP agent was also arrested at the polling unit.

The APC agent at the polling unit, Alhaja Monsurat Ogunfolaji, accused the PDP of attempting to disrupt the electoral process.

She said that around 3pm she noticed that a man and a woman who had not previously been identified as PDP agents showed up with the party’s tag and started to share money to voters.

She raised the alarm and security agents arrested one of them.

But, speaking on behalf of the PDP, a former Chairman, Obafemi Owode Local Government Area, Babatunde Adesina, alleged that the arrest was a ploy to silence PDP members at the polling unit.

Meanwhile, three policemen were involved in an accident at Wasinmi area along Lagos – Abeokuta expressway in Ewekoro local government area of the state.

The accident occurred at about 9:35 a.m while going on an election monitoring around the area.

Our correspondent who witnessed the incident observed that the rickety bus of the Nigeria Police Force belonging to Ewekoro Divisional Police somersaulted from its side facing Lagos axis and jumped to the other prompted the tyres to burst.
