Soldiers and Tanks Surround INEC Abuja Over ADC Protest Threat
Armed soldiers and armoured tanks have been deployed around the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) headquarters in Abuja. Police operatives stand guard at multiple access points. This show of force follows threats of a mass protest by members of the African Democratic Congress (ADC). The deployment ties into a deepening leadership crisis within the ADC. INEC recently removed the names of David Mark and Rauf Aregbesola from its portal under a Court of Appeal order. The commission has since suspended dealings with any ADC faction until the dispute is resolved. Parts of the complex remain cordoned off to deter unrest.
