Anambra election: Corps members threaten withdraw from poll over IPOB order


Some National Youth Service Corps, NYSC, members in Anambra State have vowed to steer clear of the forthcoming governorship election over constant threats from the
Indigenous People of Biafra, IPOB.


DAILY POST reports that the Independent National Electoral
Commission, INEC, often relies on corps members for the conduct of elections in all parts of the country. They are often used as Presiding Officers, PO and Assistant Presiding
Officers, APO 1, 2 and 3 in most polling units during elections.


But sequel to the tension currently rocking Anambra State following moves by IPOB to halt the election, corps members serving in some local government areas of the state, told
DAILY POST that they are not interested in taking part in the
election currently being threatened.
