The Chief of Defence Staff (CDS), General Musa Christopher, has warned political thugs and criminals to stay clear of Bayelsa, Kogi, and Imo elections set to
be held on 11 November 2023 or face military wrath.The CDS gave the warning when he received the Minister of Defence Mohammed Badaru Abubakar and the Minister of State for Defence Bello Mohammed Matawale during a familiarisation visit.“We’re also prepared for the coming elections in the three states of Imo, Kogi, and Bayelsa. I want to ensure that the election goes in fully democratically, without any fear or intimidation. We don’t want any violence.
He lauded the federal government’s determination, dedication, and commitment to ensuring that the armed forces are properly equipped, and properly trained to perform their constitutional role. Also, there are special funds for medical. What we realize is the morale of our troops. They see how the injured are treated. If they’re not treated well, they will never want to be committed. But we are happy to see how they are doing and we are happy that more have been promised and more will be done.”
