No fewer than 30 persons have been arrested by the police in Adamawa for various electoral offences.<\/p>\n

Confirming the arrest, the Commissioner of Police in the state, Alhaji Musa Daura, said that all those arrested had been brought to the state CID office for investigation.<\/p>\n

Daura also confirmed the attempts to burn down the houses of some politicians by those he described as thugs in Jada and Mubi North local government areas, as well as another attempt to mob a local government official in Lamurde Local Government Area.<\/p>\n

The commissioner also confirmed the impounding of nine cars and 73 motorcycles for violating the law restricting movement on election days.<\/p>\n

\u201cMost of the motorcycles impounded have no number plates. We will make sure their owners present their papers to prove ownership, as well as purchase number plates before taking them to court for the offence they committed,\u2019\u2019 Daura said.<\/p>\n

He lauded the people of Adamawa over the conduct of the election which, he said, was generally peaceful except in the few incidents recorded.<\/p>\n

He gave assurance that the police and other security agencies mobilised for the general elections in the state were equal to the task of maintaining law and order. (NAN)<\/p>\n
