No threat to 2023 general elections — IGP

INSPECTOR-GENERAL of Police Usman Baba says there is no immediate threat to the conduct of the 2023 general elections.

  The IGP gave the assurance in a statement issued by the Force Public Relations Officer, Olumuyiwa Adejobi in Abuja, yesterday.

  According to Baba, the assurance followed a robust security threat analysis carried out by the Police using global best standards to ascertain the trend of expectations for the electioneering processes.

  Explaining that focus was particularly on the training of tactical units deployed in the North East and other conflict theatres across the country, Baba said discussion was also going on over election security management training across the six geopolitical zones in preparation for the 2023 general elections.
