Voters Flee As Thugs Smash Ballot Box, Disrupts Election In Benue State [Photos]

Suspected political thugs have disrupted the rerun election at Jato-Aka Tse Akough PU 012, Yaav ward, Kwande Local Government of Benue State.

A young man identified as Mr. Iorver Yough, believed to be working for the All Progressives Congress, APC, reportedly led APC thugs with Sekav Aule (Tor Geri Jato-aka) to destroy election materials.

Yough allegedly slapped the PDP agent, Micheal Iornongo, used club and machetes on him while Aule and his boys broke the ballot box and snatched the register.

Voters have fled the polling unit following the incident.

We gathered that, although some materials were recovered, the register is missing.
