The men (about 7 in number) revealed that they were brought from Calabar, Cross River state by the Akwa Ibom state Commissioner for Youth and Sports, George Monday Uko, the owner of Monty Suites in Uyo and Calabar.
The suspects who were arrested yesterday, claimed that they invited by the commissioner peacefully to monitor the election and notify him whenever they notice any corrupt practices such as bribing electorates.
