“The incessant attacks on INEC offices and facilities is an act of terrorism, every meaningful Nigerian must condemn it.

“Also, locking down towns and cities in the Southeast is also a pathway to anarchy and insanity”, he declared.

Shettima said the situation and activities of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) are not in tandem with modern democratic practice.
