He reiterated that irrespective of political affinity, all hands must
be on deck to make the election hitch free, such that it will be a
reference point for both Local and International observers and
commentators when credible elections are being discussed in the country.
He
tasked the electorates to carry out their civic duties and
responsibilities in a transparent manner, to relate peacefully with one
another and to inform security operatives appropriately any suspicious
act or movement and when they notice unfamiliar faces, strangers,
infiltrators or persons suspected with other motives different from the
election program.
He added that visitors into states are also
expected to conduct themselves in a lawful manner, to be of good
behavior and to leave politics to politicians. To
the politicians, Dr. Abolurin advised that they should seek the good of
the nation as they go about their political activities rather than
engage in unwarranted propaganda and verbal attacks on security
operatives who are there for the good of all.
He
further tasked its personnel to partner and synergise with other sister
agencies and allow their various professional trainings to take center
stage by expressing civility in their approach and to work with decorum
to serve, save lives and to protect the citizenry. He urged the public to make their complaints known on time for prompt intervention in case of any emergency.
Also,
the Corps sniffer dogs specially trained for election and crowd control
had, according to him, been deployed to detect anybody in possession of
dangerous weapons, carrying money about or any other thing to disrupt
election.
