Military on Elections: We are now ready to Protect the People during Elections

The Nigerian Army said it would provide security for election materials and officials of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) during and after the forthcoming elections.

Brig.-Gen. Koko Essien, Commander, 2 Brigade Port Harcourt, disclosed this on Thursday while addressing newsmen in Port Harcourt.

He said the Army was willing to deploy troops on ground and on waterways to subvert any form of ballot box snatching and violence at the request of INEC.

“We have a mandate to support the success of these elections, and so, my men will provide security to INEC officials and materials on ground and waterways in a constitutional manner.

“Come March 28 and April 11, people should feel free and come out to vote any candidate of their choice because we are working with other sister security services to provide a top notch security.
