INEC driver and policemen escape mob attack

Two policemen and an INEC driver in Warri where almost lynched by an angry mob  for alleged attempt to divert election materials meant for today’s governorship/state assembly polls. The men were driving out of the commission’s complex on Esisi Road, Warri when some party agents grew suspicious  and confronted them. The agents then demanded to search the vehicle and discovered some election materials hidden under one of the seats. Although the Electoral Officer (EO) for Warri South, Fidelia Omoile, said the materials were not meant for Warri South and that they were being returned to Isoko South, sources said party agents in Isoko South disputed Omoile’s claims. They reportedly said materials for Isoko South
were intact. It took the security men to calm the mob down and prevent trouble.
