The Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC) Edo Sector Command says it will not participate in Saturday’s local government election in Edo State because it was not invited. Both reports state that the election is scheduled for Saturday and that the FRSC’s decision is linked to procedural access rather than a dispute over the electoral process itself. According to the statements cited by the outlets, the Corps’ position is that participation requires an invitation, and without one it will not deploy for the exercise. The reports do not detail any further plans by FRSC for election-related duties, nor do they provide information on whether other agencies or stakeholders were invited. The explanations presented focus only on the issue of being left out of the invitation for the election-related role. The matter therefore centers on coordination and engagement ahead of the vote rather than on election outcomes or campaign issues.
