<p>The National Security Adviser (NSA), Nuhu Ribadu, has issued a stern warning that security agencies will meet any act of violence during the upcoming Anambra State governorship election with a firm and decisive response.</p>
<p>Ribadu, whose message was delivered by Hassan Yahaya Abdullahi, Director of Internal Security at the Office of the NSA, spoke on Tuesday in Abuja during a meeting of the Inter-Agency Consultative Committee on Election Security (ICCES) with officials of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).</p>
<p>The NSA gave assurances that the Federal Government has established comprehensive security measures to guarantee a peaceful, free, and credible election on November 8, 2025.</p><div class="5YGGdQWL" style="clear:both;float:left;width:100%;margin:0 0 20px 0;"><script async src="https://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/js/adsbygoogle.js"></script>

<p>&#8220;As we prepare for the Anambra State governorship election on November 8, 2025, we have put in place robust security arrangements,” Ribadu said. “These include enhanced surveillance, the deployment of sufficient security personnel, and improved intelligence gathering to prevent any attempt by disruptive elements or desperate politicians to undermine the electoral process.”</p>

<p>He stressed that political leaders and candidates must assume full responsibility for maintaining peace, emphasizing that security agencies will not tolerate violence or any actions capable of destabilizing the state.</p>
<p>“Any form of violence during the elections will be met with a strong, uncompromising response,” Ribadu warned.</p>
<p>The NSA noted that the Nigeria Police Force (NPF), alongside other security agencies, had been completely mobilized to provide adequate protection for voters, election officials, and electoral materials before, during, and after the polls.</p>
<p>Meanwhile, INEC Chairman, Prof. Joash Amupitan, reaffirmed the commission’s readiness for the Anambra governorship election, confirming that all logistical and security preparations have been finalized.</p>
<p>“With just 11 days to the Anambra governorship election, the commission is confident in affirming its full preparedness for the polls,” Amupitan stated. “We plan to deploy about 24,000 personnel, with voting taking place in 5,718 of the state’s 5,720 polling units.”</p>
<p>The INEC Chairman urged security agencies to maintain their collaborative efforts to create a safe and orderly voting environment. He also cautioned against the practice of vote-buying and voter inducement.</p>
<p>“Security agents cannot afford to create an environment that allows vote buyers to operate,” he said. “Together, let us combat vote-buying, uphold democratic values, and work relentlessly for the credibility of our elections.”</p>
