The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) says it is tracking voters who chased away its operatives from a polling unit during the Ekiti State governorship election. According to the EFCC, some voters allegedly repelled its election-related team while they were carrying out their duties at the polling location. The commission warns that individuals involved face “serious legal consequences,” and indicates it will take prosecutorial action where evidence supports wrongdoing. The reports also describe the incident as part of the wider election process in Ekiti, where EFCC operatives were present to monitor activities and ensure compliance with electoral rules. While the accounts do not detail the number of people being tracked or the specific charges being considered, they consistently state that the EFCC is building a case and identifying those involved. Both outlets frame the development as an enforcement and accountability step by the anti-graft agency following the incident at the polling unit.
