The Ogun INEC office attackers are the target of a N2.5 million police bounty. The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) headquarters in Abeokuta South Local Government was destroyed by thugs, and the Ogun State police is willing to pay N2.5 million to anyone with information about the thugs.
The INEC office at Iyana Mortuary in Abeokuta, the capital of Ogun State, was reportedly set on fire by as-yet-unidentified hoodlums, according to PulseNets.
