LAGOS \u2014 As Nigerians go to the polls today for the last phase of the 2011 General elections, to elect the candidates of their choice in the governorship and state Houses of Assembly elections, the Presidential Committee on Public Awareness on Security and Civic Responsibilities, has called on all registered Nigerians to go out en masse and exercise their civic responsibility.<\/p>\n

In a statement, Chairman of the Committee, Dr Lateef Adegbite, advised the electorate to conduct themselves in an orderly manner, as well as cooperate with all security agencies and election officials for a peaceful, free and fair conduct of the polls.<\/p>\n

He also called on security agencies to reciprocate the cooperation of the electorate by being fair and just to all concerned, during the exercise.<\/p>\n

The Committee reminded Nigerians that peace and security were essential in nurturing a virile and durable democracy, adding that some major security challenges are capable of subverting the democratic process.<\/p>\n

The Presidential Committee on Security Awareness, therefore, assured Nigerians that President Goodluck Jonathan\u2019s administration remained irrevocably committed to its constitutional role of securing the lives and property of all Nigerians, and urged all well-meaning citizens to be vigilant and report suspicious characters considered as security risks to the appropriate security agencies.<\/p>\n

The Presidential Committee on Public Awareness on Security and Civic Responsibilities was recently inaugurated by the government, to sensitise the public on issues of security and civic responsibilities, as part of government\u2019s determination not to allow the current security challenges degenerate into unmanageable proportions.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
