However, voters had expressed fears over the security armoured vehicle patrolling the area before the snatching of the box.
One of them, who introduced himself as Chibuike, said: “We are afraid.
“You saw how they snatched the ballot box with security people around and you will know it was planned.
“We are afraid and we are not safe. How can an election be conducted with an armoured vehicle? This is wrong.”
