According to the Governor who cast his vote at his polling unit R16 within the premises of Government Science and Technical College, Gbanjimba, headquarters of the Guma local government area confirmed that Mr. Cletus was arrested in his local government area, and the money found in him was just a paltry sum of a hundred thousand nairas.

He also added that the EFCC in one way or another other is destabilizing the election, due to the arrest of Mr. Cletus Tyokyar.

Furthermore, Governor Ortom went ahead to add that, it’s a shame to the anti-graft agency and also commended the Independent National Electoral Commission for the conduct of a smooth running and peaceful election.

He also thanked the people of his state for the massive turnout since the whole council ward had to be transferred to polling units in the area as a result of insecurity in other areas of the state.
