Gov. Dave Umahi told newsmen in Abakaliki on Friday that the deployment of the helicopter was to complement security measures already put in place in the state.
The governor said that the helicopter would be flying at low altitudes and urged residents not to panic.
He assured that the exercise was to deter insurgents or bandits from disrupting the election in any part of Ebonyi.
“We got a surprise package from our security chiefs in Abuja aimed at having free, fair and credible elections in Ebonyi.
