2023 General Elections: Army releases hotlines for operation safe conduct
The Nigerian Army has approved a list of Hotlines across the 36 States and FCT to monitor and report any suspicious act or acts of violence by unscrupulous persons or group of persons capable of disrupting the peaceful conduct of the 2023 general election.
According to Army Headquarters, the lines also enable citizens report conduct of troops deployed to provide security during the election.
The director, army public relations, Brig-Gen. Onyema Nwachukwu said the move is part of efforts of the Army to support the lead security agency, the Nigerian Police Force (NPF) for the successful conduct of free, fair and peaceful elections.
“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, the Nigerian Army (NA) has approved 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 peaceful conduct of the 2023 general election, as well as the conduct of troops deployed to provide security during the election” he said.
