The sky is hazy, there was heavy downpour last night as Anambra people against all odds gear up for the “El clasico” elections.
This is one election which has garnered a whole lot of tension, sympathy, violence and premonition. Every street and popular junctions have serious police personnel standing at akimbo looking at passersby with strong disdain. Everyone is a suspect.
Jkcyno news earlier reported that IPOB Canceled the proposed sit at home and Urged Anambra Residents To Vote On Saturday
This latest news from the IPOB hierarchy has caused serious unrest in the Camp of “ndị IPOB”. Most IPOB faithfuls who automatically had disenfranchised themselves prio to the election with the intention of boycotting the election are not taking it lightly as they are still insisting on the election boycott.
From our report from the situation on ground from Awka, Anambra state, there is heavy security presence on ground with helicopters flying around.
There’s vehicular movement in Awka and its environment and people are moving around freely.
From Alex Ekwueme Square, we noticed most of INEC adhoc staff gathered in numbers waiting to be taken to some remote parts of the state such as Ogbaru LGA, Nnewi, Ihiala and others.
From our findings, Anambra is cool, people are watching and observing the situation on ground and the election definitely would hold tomorrow.
More reports to follow…….
