Pics: Army men seize car keys from people going to vote in Asaba

Some voters who didn't adhere to the 'no movement' rule in Asaba, Delta state, got some attention from the army this morning. Their cars were stopped and car keys taken away from them at gun point at different locations in Asaba. Most of the cars are left on the streets. Many of them are crying foul but...the police said no movement. A LIB reader sent in the photos. More pics when you continue...

    2. In d name of wanting to vote they wil use their car's for sth else. In fact, d army should impound those vehicles, and never giv them back to teach them good lesson.

    1. It's not about supporting the army, it's about stopping what's wrong. The rule was that there won't be 'vehicular' movement from 8am to 5pm while elections would be going on. Your ignorant and obviously stupid state is so pathetic!

  23. They were on their way to their polling units, and their car keys seized? Hmmmmm! Are they expected to disappear from their homes and appear at their different polling units? If movements are restricted, it's not supposed to affect voters.

  24. Have they not heard "fear God, respect the army"? Have u seen d story about Flavour's niteclub? Check out naijacarlovers.blogspot.com.

    1. Well some assumed it might not be applicable to them since they apparently stay in a different location from their registered area. Especially those that had voted last four years who would have relocated. I no fit go vote cos mine is due to change of location.

  27. They asked for it since they can't obey simple instruction...

  34. Well done army. I saw Information commissioner , Ogeah, On TV saying they asked his driver for the car keys. What was he doing driving around? Don't we all have excuses to drive round town and fill the roads with our cars, even having a usual day traffic jam? He wanted to spread some money around!

    ReplyDelete
  35. U registered years ago in a location near ur crib and then u relocate, means u shouldn't go to ur now far away PU to vote? The law has to be VERY explicit about movement of voters who stay far from their PU and move with their PVC on election day.

  37. Eyah, I feel for them. They would have just remain in their houses
