The Nigeria Army has warn group planning mayhem for Saturday’s governorship elections in Imo, Kogi and Bayelsa States.
The Defence Headquarters (DHQ) director of media operations Major General Edward Buba said Thursday that there would be consequences for any groups or individuals who aim to cause mayhem.
“Our message to such a group is that there will be injurious consequences for such an action. The military will not fold its arms and watch its image dragged into the mud,” said Maj-Gen Buba
“There is no cause for concern. There are adequate security arrangements on ground to guarantee adequate security for the entire law-abiding citizens before, during and after the polls. Right now, troops, equipment and other logistics are being deployed to the affected states where the elections are taking place on Saturday, to complement the security arrangements on ground.”
