He adds that if the Police get it right and ensure that the people of Edo State enjoys a peaceful voting exercise, the election will be a huge success.

Austin Braimoh, a Commissioner in the Commission, representing the South-South Zone of the Country and who is leading the Commission’s delegation in Edo, also notes the PSC Monitors are in Edo to ensure that the Police Officers play by the rules.

“We are going to checkmate their conduct and ensure they operate within established rules,” Braimoh said adding that the Commission will commend Officers found to have discharged their duties meritoriously.
