 SENATE ADJOURNS EMERGENCY PLENARY ON STATE POLICE OVER REP’S DEATH. The Senate today suspended consideration of the highly anticipated State Police Bill and all other legislative business at its emergency plenary session to honour the memory of Hon. Yaya Tongo, a member of the House of Representatives, whose death cast a sombre mood over the National Assembly. The upper chamber had reconvened from recess amid expectations that lawmakers would accelerate action on the proposed constitutional amendment seeking to establish state police across the federation, a measure widely seen as a major step in the ongoing effort to reform Nigeria’s security architecture.

PROTESTS OF ANY KIND REMAIN PROHIBITED,ANNOUNCEMENT OF RESULTS THE PRESERVE OF INEC-KDSG. (PHOTO).#PRESS RELEASE.



KDSG Security Update: Sunday 26th February 2023. 

Protests of any kind remain prohibited. 

- Announcement of results the preserve of INEC

As the collation of election results progresses, the Kaduna State Government hereby reminds citizens that protests of any sort remain strictly prohibited across the State. 

The State Government has noted with satisfaction the largely peaceful conduct of elections across the state, and commends residents for exercising their franchise in an orderly manner. 

Citizens must therefore avoid street protests over election results - or of any other kind - in order to preserve the atmosphere of calm so far experienced. Actions which may disrupt public peace will be handled decisively by security agencies. 

It must be stressed that the announcement of election results is the exclusive duty of the Independent National Electoral Commission. Individuals and groups involved in unofficial publication of results should be aware that they constitute serious threats to public peace and order. 

Individuals or groups who may have queries over officially announced results are strongly urged to utilize the legal instruments provided by the Electoral Act. 

Governor Nasir El-Rufai continues to monitor closely the security situation in relation to the conduct of the elections, alongside security agencies in the State. 

Signed 

Samuel Aruwan 
Commissioner, Ministry of Internal Security and Home Affairs, Kaduna State.
