The federal government has threatened to declare a state of emergency in Anambra to ensure that the November 6 governorship election in the state takes place and peaceful.
Abubakar Malami, attorney-general of the federation (AGF) and minister of justice, made the statement on Wednesday after the Federal Executive Council (FEC) meeting at the presidential villa, Abuja.
The minister said the government is determined to ensure a peaceful and hitch-free election in the state.
“When our national security is attacked, and the sanctity of our constitutionally guaranteed democracy is threatened, no possibility is ruled out,” he said.
