Ahead of the forthcoming local government election, which will hold on Saturday, the Abia State Government has restricted the movement of people and vehicles during the elections.
According to the state government, the restrictions will commence by midnight on Friday and end by 4 pm on Saturday.
The directive was announced by Okey Kanu, the Commissioner for Information, on Thursday.
“By this announcement, only those on essential services will be allowed movement upon the presentation of valid identification cards.
The state government warned all residents of the State, including markets, motor parks and other business centres to adhere strictly to the restriction order ” as defaulters would have themselves to blame as security agents are well prepared to ensure the strict implementation of this order.”
