As the electorates go to poll a few hours from now to elect a governor who will take over from the outgoing governor, Godwin Obaseki, security operatives have been beefed up in the state.

According to reports, voters have started going to their voting centres.

The security operatives, mainly the Nigerian Army, and policemen have blocked several major streets and roads.

At Agho and Joromi junctions, Ekenwa road, Benin City, military operatives blocked the two sides of the road, thereby making passage difficult for motorists.
