Report on Disruption of SUG Election at Faculty of Agriculture, Nasarawa State University, Keffi

Published

In an alarming development during the ongoing Students’ Union Government (SUG) election at the Faculty of Agriculture, Nasarawa State University, Keffi (NSUK), the electoral process has been severely disrupted by the arrival of armed soldiers, reportedly from the Government House. The soldiers, arriving in a vehicle bearing the license plate number 145 NSGH, allegedly intervened in the election proceedings, creating a chaotic environment and forcing the eligible voters, agents, and observers to flee the polling area.

Eyewitness accounts and photographic evidence confirm the presence of these gun-wielding soldiers, who are accused of chasing away all legitimate participants in the election. The disruption is alleged to be part of an effort to manipulate the election in favor of a particular candidate, Rilwan Ahmed Barade, by stuffing ballot boxes with fraudulent votes.

This incident is deeply concerning as it undermines the principles of free, fair, and credible elections, which are essential in any democratic process. The involvement of external forces in what should be a student-led election raises serious questions about the integrity of the process and the safety of those involved.

In light of these events, there is a strong appeal to the management of Nasarawa State University, Keffi, to take immediate action. The election in the Faculty of Agriculture should be annulled, and steps must be taken to ensure that a fresh election is conducted under secure and transparent conditions. It is crucial that the university upholds the democratic rights of its students by ensuring that their votes are counted fairly and without undue interference.

The university community and all stakeholders are urged to remain vigilant and demand accountability to protect the sanctity of the electoral process. The credibility of the university and its commitment to democratic values are at stake, and swift action is required to restore trust in the electoral system.
