A female voter in Abuja whose identify could not be immediately confirmed has been reportedly feared killed during the Abuja council election.
Report had it that the middle-aged woman was knocked down by a supporter of one of the major political parties who was riding a motorcycle on Saturday.
Sources said that the female voter met her death while attempting to cross the road to her polling unit around 10:12am in PU048, Salasi, opposite Karu Post Office, in the Abuja Municipal Area Council.
The motorcyclist, flanked with the flag of one of the major political parties, was said to have been suspected to have acted under the influence of an intoxicant.
Those in the area reportedly arrested and handed over the motorcyclist to security operatives monitoring the election.
The Federal Capital Territory Police Command earlier announced restriction of movement but later relaxed the order in a statement.
However, at about midnight on Friday, the Command again issued a notice of restriction on the ground that it received a credible intelligence that some miscreants were trying to foment trouble.
