Report has it that at least two persons were killed and many others badly injured during the elections at polling units in Amukpe area of Sapele town, Sapele council area of Delta state on Saturday.

It was gathered that some armed persons opened fire on the voters and killed their victims instantly as supporters of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), clashed in the area before the intervention of policemen who fired some shots to disperse the fighters.

A witness at the scene of the incident, said the killers surfaced and started shooting at about 12:55pm.

According to him: “I’m not sure if they carted election materials away but I saw that the ground of the place was littered with election materials, giving me the impression that they only scattered the materials”.

Meanwhile, voting was relatively peaceful in most other polling units as voters were seen casting their votes.
