Attacks On INEC Offices Are Terrorist Acts – Shettima
  • PublishedJanuary 19, 2023

The vice presidential candidate, All Progressives Congress (APC), Senator Kashim Shettima has described the attacks on Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) offices as an act of terrorism.

Speaking in Birnin Kebbi while paying a courtesy visit to the Emir of Gwandu, Alhaji Muhammadu Iliyasu-Bashar, in his palace, Shettima stressed that nobody in Nigeria can force themselves in power through threats, intimidation and blackmail.

The former Borno governor claimed that the circumstances and actions of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), are not in line with the current democratic practice.

Shettima said, “The incessant attacks on INEC offices and facilities is an act of terrorism, every meaningful Nigerian must condemn it.

“Also, locking down towns and cities in the Southeast is also a pathway to anarchy and insanity.”
