Muhammed Abubakar, Reporting

AHEAD of the general elections starting on Saturday, the Nigerian Army (NA) has rolled out a list of hotlines to monitor and report any suspicious act or acts of violence by unscrupulous persons or group of persons capable of disrupting the polls.

This is in an effort to effectively carry out its constitutional mandate of providing support to civil authorities and working in synergy with the Nigeria Police (NP) to ensure protection of lives and property during the forthcoming 2023 elections.

This was disclosed in a statement issued by Brigadier General Onyema Nwachukwu, Director Army Public Relations on Tuesday evening.

He said the essence is to ensure a peaceful conduct of the 2023 general election, as well as the conduct of troops deployed to provide security during the election.

“This is part of NA’s move to support the lead security agency, the NP for the successful conduct of free,fair and peaceful elections.

“It could be recalled that the NA had earlier produced and circulated Codes of Conduct and Rules of Engagement for Operation Safe Conduct to formations and Units to provide guidance and ensure that troops operate within the provisions of the codes and rules.

“Members of the general public are please enjoined to call the phone numbers below in their various states including the Federal Capital Territory Abuja to report any security breach during the elections” he further noted.
