BREAKING: Serious Voter Intimidation In Nassarawa: Text Of An APGA Agent

Our Radar's reporting teams in Nassarawa state have observed serious voter intimidation at the polling units in many of the wards in the State, with many people unable to vote as a result.
Armed APC supporters descended on polling units, forcing many would-be voters to flee the scene. Here is a text from an APGA agent
“Good evening sir, I am by name timothy N Balam from Jibel. Sir, there is a problem in our polling unit. Voters for APGA were not allowed to vote except for APC and PDP. They brought in Fulani and said nobody will vote for APGA because he (Maku) is Eggon by tribe. They went and brought warriors with ammunition to kill us. I as APGA agent escaped narrowly because they ran after me and I thank God for saving me.
“For that we were not allowed to vote for APGA by the Fulani warriors because they were having weapons.
“Thanks, I remain Timothy N Balam, agent  APGA, Arikaya/Mankwar Ward Unit 19, Jibel,” he concluded.
