A Nigerian election agency office was attacked with three sticks of dynamite in the southern oil-industry hub state of Rivers on Saturday as the nation voted in gubernatorial elections, according to a monitor group.

The dynamite was thrown into the local Independent National Electoral Commission office in the town of Buguma, the Situation Room, a coalition of election monitors, said in a post on its Twitter account.

Nigeria’s Rivers state police spokesman, Ahmad Muhammad, said by phone that they are investigating reports of a violent “incident” in the state. Gesila Khan, the Rivers state INEC resident commissioner, declined to comment.
