 The credibility of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) voters’ register has come under intense scrutiny ahead of the 2027 general elections, following revelations by INEC Chairman Professor Joash Amupitan that names of deceased persons remain on the register. Amupitan disclosed that names of voters who died as far back as 15 years ago are still listed, a situation critics say could undermine the integrity of the 2027 polls and lead to significant financial waste through the printing of excess ballot papers and other election logistics. The INEC chairman made the revelation while receiving the Director-General/Chief Executive Officer of the National Identity Management Commission (NIMC), Abisoye Coker-Odusote, and her management team during a courtesy visit in Abuja on Wednesday.

CRIME: MANHUNT LAUNCHED FOLLOWING ASSAULT ON STUDENT; VICTIM RESPONDING TO TREATMENT  

...As CP Sani-Omolori Assures Adequate Security in Students’ Off-Campus Areas, Warns Students to Avoid Isolated Places


The Bauchi State Police Command wishes to inform the general public of its efforts to apprehend the perpetrators of the unfortunate incident that occurred on 23rd April, 2026, in Gadau, Itas/Gadau LGA, involving a female student of Sa’adu Zungur University residing off-campus.


At about 1930hrs, a report was received at the Gadau Police Outstation indicating that an unidentified suspect, armed with machete and knife, attacked Maryam Yakini, a 22-year-old female student, near Villa Lodge.


The victim, a student of Gadau Campus of the University, sustained serious injuries during the attack, including the severing of her left thumb and ear. She is currently responding to medical treatment at the Teaching Hospital, Azare. The assailant also robbed her of personal belongings, including two ATM cards (Opay and Access Bank) and her school identification card.


The Command also wishes to categorically debunk claims circulating on some sections of social media that the victim died following the incident. These claims are not only misleading and untrue but also represent a desperate attempt to incite unrest and panic within the student community.


Consequently, the Command assures the public of its commitment to ensuring the safety and security of all students through its 'Safe School Initiative Programme', which will also be improved at all off-campus areas statewide. 


The Commissioner of Police, CP Sani-Omolori Aliyu, mni, psc (+), further warned students to avoid loitering or reading in isolated places, especially during night hours.


For emergencies, complaints, and information to the Police, Bauchi State Command, call: 0815184941, 08025635508
