“The electorate should be civil, peaceful, conduct themselves well and listen to instructions, especially from the security personnel,” he said.

Meanwhile, Mr Tari Ere, a local government party agent for All Progressives Congress (APC) for Southern Ijaw Local Government Area expressed worry over seeming unavailable materials, including result sheets.

“What is keeping us here are wards 9, 10, 11 voters registers and we are good to go; although, we are having some issues in ward 15 Southern Ijaw, result sheets were not available.

“But they brought a replacement sheet, which has been certified, so we are good to go and we are very comfortable with the distribution processes,” Ere said.

Also, Mr Victor Ateki, a People’s Democratic Party (PDP) agent for Brass Local Government Area of the state expressed worry over their materials passing through Nembe due to the crisis in the area.
