Barely three days to the governorship election in Kogi State, the police have ordered immediate seizure of all vehicles without number plates of the Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC).
State Commissioner of Police, Mr. Akeem Busari, who gave the order in Lokoja on Tuesday, said owners of vehicles with covered number plates should also remove them or have them impounded by policemen.
Busari, who spoke to newsmen after a security meeting of some heads of security agencies in the state, also ordered policemen attached to politicians and political office holders to withdraw themselves from such duty, latest Friday morning.
He said that all borders with neighbouring states would be shut by 12 midnight on Friday.
According to him, restriction of vehicular movements will be enforced from 12 midnight of November 15 to 6pm of November 16.
He advised members of the public to adhere strictly to the order as violators would be dealt with accordingly.
In another development, the police commissioner has urged officers that would be deployed for election duty to reject any offer that would make them to compromise the integrity of the election.
