INEC Admin Sec Rescued from Kidnappers

The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has announced the rescue of its Administrative Secretary, Mrs. Nneka Anibeze, who was kidnapped by unknown gunmen on Tuesday.

According to a statement issued by the Commission, Mrs. Anibeze was rescued on Wednesday evening after a joint operation by security agencies and INEC officials.

The statement said that Mrs. Anibeze was kidnapped while on her way to her office in the early hours of Tuesday morning. The kidnappers had demanded a ransom from her family, but the Commission had refused to pay, opting instead to work with security agencies to secure her release.

The rescue operation was carried out by a team of security personnel from the Nigeria Police Force, the Department of State Services (DSS), and the Nigerian Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC), in collaboration with INEC officials.

INEC Chairman, Professor Mahmood Yakubu, commended the security agencies for their efforts in rescuing Mrs. Anibeze, saying that the Commission was grateful for their prompt response and professionalism.

"We are relieved that Mrs. Anibeze has been rescued safely and we commend the security agencies for their swift action in rescuing her," Professor Yakubu said.

The Commission also expressed its gratitude to the public for their support and cooperation during the period of Mrs. Anibeze's abduction.

Mrs. Anibeze is currently receiving medical attention and is expected to return to work soon.

The incident has sparked concerns about the safety of INEC officials and the security of the electoral process in the country. However, the Commission has assured that it will continue to work with security agencies to ensure the safety of its officials and the integrity of the electoral process.
