Early morning election situation report in Cross River, a top member of the All Progressives Congress (APC) was this morning shot dead by one of the soldiers providing security at a polling centre in Ogoja of Northern Senatorial district of the state.
An eye witness account said the deceased whose name was given as Joe is a popular bike rider in Calabar was at the polling centre in Ogoja causing tension in a rowdy manner insisting that this time APC must win in Ogoja.
The eyewitness said as the tension and rowdy situation persisted, a soldier pulled his gun and shot in dead causing panic and tension to rise in the area.
However generally materials arrived on time in most areas and at most polling centres in Calabar started at about 8am especially in Spring road, State Housing, and most other areas.
Heavy police presence in the state but turnout was very poor as people are not happy that their votes did not count in last election in most areas.
At the road leading to Akpabuyo and Bakassi many were stranded as fierce looking security blocked Atimbo Bridge as early as 4.am this morning against vehicular movement depriving many access to Akpabuyo. It is feared that many voters may be stranded and may not be able to perform their civic duties.
Some INEC accredited Journalist and persons involved in the conduct of the governorship and house of assembly elections were made to park their vehicles and trek long distances to avoid missing out on their assignment.
