"They asked me about my comment on the NTA's live program, about the state security situation and I explained them to them.
"The last security review we conducted took place on Friday with all the security agencies. All paramilitaries, such as immigration services, prisons, civil defense and Nigerian customs, will all provide security. Security agencies are ready to help the police.
"As you have observed, we have a history of violence during elections in Kaduna State. We have made it clear that vigilance groups will not be allowed to provide security tomorrow.
