In a statement signed by the Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO) in the state, DSP Moses Yamu, the Benue police boss warned the public against all forms of thuggery, hooliganism, destruction of Campaign billboards/banners/posters, vote buying/selling, Permanent Voters Card (PVC) buying/selling and for security purpose, unapproved political rallies/gatherings/processions.

“Finally, the Command appeals to the general public not to take laws into their hands this electioneering campaigns period and should not hesitate to report any suspicious persons or actions to the nearest Police Station,” the statement read in part.
