*Bishop raises the alarm

The Anglican Bishop of Eha-amufu in Isi-uzo LGA of Enugu State Rt. Rev. Daniel Olinya, has raised the alarm of the presence of suspected fake policemen in the area.

The Bishop who spoke with newsmen monitoring the governorship and State House of Assembly elections said he had to run for his life from his polling unit for fear of his life.

“A particular party is suppressing voters there at Umuokpara, Umuhu, Eha-amufu.

“The place is very rowdy and the policemen there could not identify themselves. 

“No Identification cards. All they show you are caps. Most of them were putting on slippers; they were not putting on uniforms.

“I had to leave the place in a hurry. The place was charged and people are being intimidated,” he said.

“There is need to get a cross to the authorities because the situation is not safe for voting.

“This must be part of the strategy by one of the candidates to enforce voter suppression by stopping people from voting,” he stressed.

Other people who were with the Bishop wondered why after all the security agencies had boasted and assured of adequate security, they still allow hoodlums or even supported them to cause mayhem against peaceful voters.
