Muhammed Abubakar, Reporting
THE National Security Adviser (NSA), Major General Babagana Monguno (retd), has revealed why some state governors are preventing opposition from mounting campaign materials in their domains.
He identified the reason as “inferiority complex,” warning that security agencies will soon descend on such governors recruiting thugs for such ignoble assignments.
Anchoring the ministerial briefing at the state house on Thursday, he further warned that there will be no hiding place for such perpetrators, when the law enforcement agencies take steps.
The NSA, who was reacting to reports of state governors implementing policies that prevent the presence of opposition campaign materials in their states, blamed the action on what he called “inferiority complex.”
He, therefore, cautioned the governors to restrain their thugs in what be describes as a ‘Cabo regime’, reminding that President Muhammadu Buhari had given clear directives that the 2023 election must be free, fair and credible.
Speaking on the persistent attacks on INEC offices particularly after he had promised to deal decisively with the attackers, he reiterated the threat, with an assurance that ‘they will get there’.
