INEC raises alarm over fake ID for security personnel

The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has raised an alarm over fake identity cards for security personnel on election duty.

Okoye said INEC’s attention had been drawn to an identity card for security personnel bearing the name and logo of the Commission with the inscription “Complete Access” boldly written in red at the bottom of it.

“We wish to state categorically that the identity card did not emanate from the Commission. Identity cards for security personnel on election duty were issued by the security agencies and not the Commission.
