The Delta State governor, Emmanuel Uduaghan, yesterday stressed the need for increased funding for the police, especially during the electoral processes, saying the reported N17 billion allocated to the Nigeria Police Force for the purpose of monitoring the conduct of the forthcoming April elections was inadequate.

Mr. Uduaghan made the criticism at the opening ceremony of a two-day national conference on partnering the police for free, fair, and credible 2011 elections, organised by the management of Vanguard Newspapers in collaboration with the South-South governors in Asaba, capital of Delta State.

According to the state governor, the call to increase funding to the police was as a result of its key role in all the stages of electoral processes in the country, which he noted was as important as that of INEC in ensuring free, fair, and credible elections...

He observed that as a result of concerns about the success in the forthcoming general elections, the National Assembly has always considered speedily the budget and demands of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).

Asking for more

"I think INEC has the fastest budget ever passed by the National Assembly members in the history of Nigeria. This means that funding is required for the conduct of successful elections," Mr. Uduaghan said.

"I also believe that police require appropriate funding if we want to achieve violence-free, fair and credible elections in 2011 and beyond. What I read in the newspapers, I don't know if it was correct, that the federal government approved N17 billion for the police for the purpose of elections monitoring.

"If that is correct, then it is underfunding of the police for this coming elections. If it is N17 billion for the police to cover the whole Nigeria for the purpose of the April general elections, I want to say that money is not enough and not adequate.

"Except it is officially allowed or permitted that the states have to do something. I want to appeal that we should have a second look at the money budgeted for the police," Mr. Uduaghan said.

He said the logistics need for the police is quite high, and called on government to find a way to assist the police in meeting its expectations for the polls.

The publisher of Vanguard Newspaper and chief facilitator of the event, Sam Amuka, said Nigeria had an unpalatable history of democracy resulting from disputed elections results.

He observed that the imperfections in the nation's electoral process has degenerated since the 1999 political dispensation, especially with the "do or die" syndrome that was built into the 2007 general elections, adding that the process led to political war between candidates of different political parties.

The conference was aimed at identifying causes of violence during elections in the country.

condemn the use of corpers:

Politicians at a stakeholders election forum organised by Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) in Asaba, Delta State, have cautioned against plan that could turn youth corps members as sacrificial lambs in the forthcoming April polls.

They  also called on the Federal Government to double the strength of the police force in order to effectively man polling units, which in the  past witnessed ballot snatching and changing of results.

Leading the campaign for INEC to reconsider its stand on the use of  corps members, Delta north senatorial candidate for All Nigeria People’s Party (ANPP), Ambassador Elizabeth Ogbon-day, said the corps members would be exposed to great risk in an environment they were not familiar with and that when pressure mounted on them, they could compromise their integrity.

According to her, the corps members would be exposed to more dangers in the light of a poor security arrangement where the few unarmed policemen at the voting centres would not be able to match the horde of thugs and other political rascals.

Ogbon-day recalled the January 6 rerun election in the state  at her community, Ogoni in Olomu clan where corps members used as INEC officials had to obey instructions from thugs in order to remain alive.

Another speaker maintained that in case of litigation after election, the  corps members used for election would not come to testify at tribunals.

The participants were of the view that INEC should purge itself in the discharge of its duties, because people, including the international community were watching.

Earlier, Resident Electoral Commissioner (REC) in Delta State, Dr. Gabriel Adah, said INEC had resolved to use corpers in the election and that any who fumbled would have their services extended.

According to him, two corpers who faked their kidnap and others who were involved in fraudulent practices in the re-run election in the state in January  had their services extended by six months.

However, he commended some corpers who returned to INEC as much as N20,000 given to them as gratification by politicians to do their bidding.

Dr. Adah disclosed that any polling unit where ballot boxes were snatched or the number of votes cast exceeded the number of accredited voters would be cancelled and a fresh election conducted after two days, all to sanitise the electoral process.
