INEC OFFICE IN NJABA LOCAL GOVERNMENT AREA OF IMO STATE SET
ABLAZE
The Resident Electoral Commissioner (REC) for Imo State, Professor
Francis Ezeonu, has reported that INEC office in Njaba Local Government
Area of Imo State was set ablaze today Sunday 30th May 2021.
Although no life was lost, the building was substantially burnt down,
along with electoral materials, office equipment and furniture.
This latest incident has been reported to the Police for investigation.
This attack is coming exactly a week after their office in Ahiazu Mbaise
Local Government Area of the State was vandalized on Sunday 23rd May
It is also the 8th INEC office to be attacked in Imo State since the
2019 General Election.
The total number of INEC offices attacked nationwide since 2019 has
now risen to 42.
INEC buildings, infrastructure and equipment are critical national assets
that guarantee the continuity of electoral activities throughout the
federation.
Festus Okoye stated that “Attacking these offices is not in the national interest and has
the capacity of compromising electoral activities and the credibility of
the democratic process”.
