She noted that peaceful and violence-free elections would enable corps members to discharge their duties freely.

Arokoyo appealed to security agencies to make adequate provisions of security for corps members at various polling centres and urged corps members to be non-partisan during the exercise.

Earlier, Alhaji Aliyu Mohammed, the Director of NOA in Niger, called on the general public to shun acts capable of disrupting the conduct of elections in the state.
