The Inspector-General of Police (IGP), Usman Alkali Baba, has directed commissioners of police in charge of state commands to “swiftly” conclude all election-related investigations.
The Force Public Relations Officer, Olumuyiwa Adejobi, in a statement today, further directed the police commissioners to forward their case files to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) for prosecution.
According to Adejobi, the investigations encompass all cases of violations against the 2022 Electoral Act during the February 25 presidential and National Assembly electioneering process.
The IGP was quoted as urging well-meaning members of the public to collaborate with the police and other law enforcement agencies tasked with election security management.
