It appears the election didn’t go as smooth as it did in other parts of the country in Imo State. There was a lot of pandemonium in six villages in Imo State, a corper working with the Independent National Electoral Commission revealed. Villagers from the six villages in Oru-East Local Go
vernment reportedly burnt buses and polling units.
The villages include; Awo-Ommama, Akuma, Amagu, Akatta, Amiri, Omuma.
They also attacked police officers and soldiers. The source said trouble started in the towns when “some men came to the LG council from Awo-Ommama, saying they heard that ten card readers and report sheets were missing. They started disrupting the peace saying no election.”
“It’s major. Several Corpers in the village have had their phones smashed so that very few info/pictures leaves the village,” said the source.
