Nothing Must Stop Anambra Election – Buhari

President Muhammadu Buhari has ordered security agencies to use all means necessary to ensure that the upcoming governorship election in Anambra State holds under a peaceful atmosphere.

President Buhari gave the or­der on Thursday during the Na­tional Security Council meeting he presided over at the Presiden­tial Villa, Abuja, directing all se­curity and intelligence agencies to do everything necessary to give the people their constitutional right to vote, threat by non-state actors to disrupt the election, not withstanding.

The president’s order were relayed to state House Correspondents after the meeting by the National Security Adviser (NSA), Major-General Babagana Monguno (rtd).

Monguno said Buhari gave the directive in response to the heightened security challenges in Anambra, orchestrated by the outlawed proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).
