Ndi Anambra should therefore, once again lead by example by turning out in large numbers to vote peacefully and responsibly,\u201d Mefor said.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Observers score state govt, INEC high<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, election observers have scored Anambra State and the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, high on the preparation for the polls, do far.<\/p>\n<p>The coordinator Grassroot Development Centre for Peace and Social Justice, Augustine Okafor, and the Chairman, Initiative for Promotion and Civic Obligation for Sustainable Peace, Sarki Danjuma, who spoke in Awka, said over 350 observers were deployed across the 21 LGAs of the state, to observe the level of preparedness of all the key actors in the electoral system.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Stakeholders\u2019 readiness<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The groups said they were satisfied with the readiness\u00a0 of all the stakeholders involved in the election, adding that they would not only monitor the conduct of the election, but would also observe the conduct of the people after the election.<\/p>\n<p>The coalition commended the timely distribution of non-sensitive electoral materials by the INEC, noting that the transparency with which the exercise was conducted showed their readiness to conduct free, fair and credible exercise.<\/p>\n<p>It also appreciated the security agencies in the state, as well as the state government, for intensifying efforts to reclaim areas that were hitherto under the control of criminals, applauding the Inspector General of Police, Kayode Egbetokun and other heads of security under the Inter-Agency Consultative Committee on Election Security (ICCES), for the deployment of over 60,000 security personnel across the State to ensure adequate security for the election.<\/p>\n<p>Part of the coalition\u2019s statement read: \u201cPolitical actors should respect the peace accord and maintain issue-based engagement. They must demonstrate maturity, tolerance, and discipline throughout the process. Any form of violence, hate speech, should not be tolerated, and severe sanctions should be melted out to violators.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSecurity agencies should provide robust protection for voters, election officials, and materials and should also ensure strict enforcement of movement restrictions on Election Day.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe call on security agencies to conduct clearance operations in the identified flashpoints and maintain robust presence in these areas to neutralize threats and apprehend potential troublemakers to forestall any security breach.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe political environment in Anambra State remains largely peaceful and conducive for credible, free, and fair election. Our observers have reported no significant incident of political thuggery or violence during campaign activities.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Level playing field<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere is level playing field, and the insistence by INEC and the security agencies against the \u2018use of incumbency power to the advantage or disadvantage of any political party or candidate,\u2019 as prohibited by the constitution and the Electoral Act, 2022, is enhancing voter confidence and discouraging voter apathy\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSecurity agencies should provide robust protection for voters, election officials, and materials and should also ensure strict enforcement of movement restrictions on Election Day.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe call on security agencies to conduct clearance operations in the identified flashpoints and maintain robust presence in these areas to neutralize threats and apprehend potential troublemakers to forestall any security breach.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The coalition urged the Economic and Financial Crime Commission (EFCC) and other security agencies to fight against vote-buying, which, it noted, undermines democracy and erodes public confidence in the process.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<strong>One man, one vote<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe principle of One Man, One Vote should be adhered to: We the Coalition of INEC Accredited Observer Groups for Credible and Transparent Elections stand firmly for the principle of \u201cone man, one vote\u201d as enshrined in Section 53(1) of the Electoral Act 2022, which states that \u201cno voter shall vote for more than one candidate or record more than one vote.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe vehemently oppose any attempts to undermine this fundamental democratic Principle of our nation.\u201d, the coalition said<\/p>\n<p><strong>Election eve atmosphere in Awka<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Traffic was light in Awka, yesterday evening\u00a0 as many residents had moved to rural communities to cast their votes.<\/p>\n<p>They utilized the opportunity provided by the public holiday declared by the Anambra State Government.<\/p>\n<p>The motor parks in the metropolis were very busy as residents were hurrying to beat the time for the restriction of entry and exit into the city and other parts of the state.<\/p>\n<p>Scores of election observers and journalists are ready on ground to monitor the election.<\/p>\n<p>Security operatives were seen at strategic locations in the city and at the entry and exit of the state.<\/p>\n<p>INEC confirmed that it has despatched election materials to the 21 LGA, and ready for the election.<\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vanguardngr.com\/2025\/11\/d-day-is-here-attention-shifts-to-5718-polling-units-in-anambra\/\">D-Day is here: Attention shifts to 5,718 polling units in Anambra<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vanguardngr.com\/\">Vanguard News<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>, <\/p>\n<p>Attention has shifted to the 5,718 polling units across the 21 local government areas of Anambra State, as 15 governorship candidates challenge the incumbent governor, Professor Chukwuma Soludo, today.<\/p>\n<p>The post <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vanguardngr.com\/2025\/11\/d-day-is-here-attention-shifts-to-5718-polling-units-in-anambra\/\">D-Day is here: Attention shifts to 5,718 polling units in Anambra<\/a> appeared first on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vanguardngr.com\/\">Vanguard News<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>, <!-- no image -->, Nwafor, {authorlink},, , Vanguard News, November 8, 2025, 12:18 am<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>D-Day is here: Attention shifts to 5,718 polling units in Anambra, \u2022Voters troop to hinterlands, utilize holiday declared govt \u2022INEC restates readiness for credible balloting \u2022Observers score security agencies, INEC high on preparations By Anayo Okoli &amp;
