Military Says Nigeria Will Be Safe For Elections
The Nigerian military has given the assurance that it is committed to securing the country in time for the new dates of the general elections.
This is coming from the Director Of Defense Information, Major-General Chris Olukolade, in an interview with the Voice of America.
Maj. Gen. Olukolade is optimistic that this goal is achievable, given the increased regional cooperation that Nigeria is receiving at the moment.
“We have committed ourselves to working to ensure that we achieve the result of making the whole place secured and every effort is being made towards that end in the sense that we are improving our fire power, and improving on collaboration with other forces.
“What should interest you is what is now different about it. For the period we have said it has passed through different stages.
“You will recall that when the State of Emergency was initially declared, we were able to curtail them and they simply left our shores and went elsewhere to improve on their mischief.
