Police operatives assigned for today’s gubernatorial election in Anambra State have expressed grievances over the inability of the police authorities to pay 10k feeding allowance approved for them.
The officers were seen on Friday demanding that the N10,000 be paid to them without further delay.
It was learnt that the officers, many of whom arrived Anambra during the week, were not given accommodation.
According to a video made available to ABN TV on Friday, the officers gathered at Idemili Ogidi Police Division, chanting “pay us our money.”
“Here are Policemen protesting over non-payment of Election feeding allowance. 10,000 naira is the amount for feeding. Meanwhile, over three days now, no accommodation and no food to eat. Many of the junior ranks are stranded in Idemili Ogidi Division where they received 1,500 Police personnel from Lagos State,” an affected senior Police officer told ABN TV correspondent.
