A staff of the Independent National Electoral Commission conducting the legislative election on Saturday in Etche local government area of Rivers State has been kidnapped.
A correspondent covering the election on Saturday reported about a female INEC staff crying while alerting the state headquarters about the incident.
Efforts to get the INEC spokesperson in the state did not yield any fruit as all the calls put across to her were not answered.
The state Police Public Relations Officer, DSP Nnamdi Omoni, when contacted said he was not yet aware of the development.
”But if it is true, we are going to launch an investigation into the matter to get to the person who did it,” he said.
