In addition to the military and the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps, the Inspector General of Police, Usman Baba Alkali, had sent roughly 21,000 police officers to maintain calm in the state.

However, the poll was marked by widespread vote-buying, which was denounced by certain candidates and civil society organizations.
