Governor-elect of Ondo State, Mr. Rotimi Akeredolu (SAN), has appealed to the Nigeria Police Force (NPF) to urgently pay the allowances of their men deployed for the election.
Akeredolu made this plea on Wednesday in Akure, the state capital when delivering his acceptance speech after receiving his certificate of return from the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).
The governor-elect lamented that the security operatives had been coming to his house since the Saturday election to demand for assistance to be able to go back to their respective destinations.
Akeredolu urged the authority in charge to quickly come to their aid.
According to him, they have been coming to me to complained that their allowances were not paid since they were deployed for the election last week.
“They have been coming to my house to beg for money, telling me that they were not paid their allowances. They are stranded”.
Some security men on Monday protested the non-payment of their allowances in the state by causing traffic gridlock and logjam in Ondo West council area.
