The Assistant Inspector General of Police for Zone 13 in Anambra State, Miller Dantawaye, has issued a directive to the Commissioner of Police for the state, Nnanna Ama, to ensure that all police personnel remain professional, neutral and impartial during the upcoming local government elections. The order comes as the state prepares for the polls in its local government areas, where police presence is expected to be significant. By mandating neutrality, the directive seeks to prevent any perception of bias or interference in the electoral process. Police officers are now required to adhere strictly to these standards during the campaign and voting periods.
