The Police Command restricted movements across the entire state to give way for a smooth exercise.
There is a heavy presence of security personnel in Jos, as Plateau holds elections across the 17 Local Government Areas (LGAs) of the state.
A correspondent of the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), who monitored the situation on Wednesday, reports that personnel of the Nigerian Police Force (NPF), Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC), and the military were stationed in strategic locations.
Also, security personnel were stationed at the various polling units to ensure a hitch-free exercise. The Police Command had earlier restricted movements across the entire state to give way for a smooth exercise.
Alfred Alabo, the Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), in the state, told NAN that the command had deployed adequate personnel to all the LGAs.
“We have made adequate arrangements towards ensuring that the election is peaceful.
“We have deployed our officers and men to all the 17 LGAs and some flashpoints within the metropolis.
“So far everywhere is peaceful, and it is our hope that Plateau residents will cooperate with the security agencies towards a violent- free poll,” Alabo said.
