An unidentified man has been shot dead by soldiers at a polling unit in Gboko South, Gboko local government area of Benue State after he snatched a ballot box during the ongoing Governorship and State House of Assembly elections on Saturday.
His corpse was left at the scene of the incident, just as people in the area have been thrown into a pensive mood.
Some of the voters, who came out en mass to exercise their civic responsibility, were, however, happy at the incident.
PlatinumPost reports that the gubernatorial election and State Assembly elections have been characterised by violence in some parts of the Benue.
