INEC To Engage Air Force & Navy Personnel For Elections In 2015 by good4all: 1:39am On Nov 25, 2014
The Independent National Electoral Commission
said it would engage the services of Nigerian Air
Force, Navy and other security agencies for
adequate security during general elections in
2015.
Austin Okojie, the commission’s Resident
Electoral Commissioner in Taraba, disclosed this
while addressing Batch B corps members at NYSC
Orientation Camp in Jalingo on Sunday.
Okojie explained that the move was necessary
given the level of insecurity in the country.
“The commission is making arrangements with
the Nigerian Air Force, Navy and other security
agents to ensure safety of lives and property
during the 2015 general elections.
“We expect Nigerians to understand that the
engagement of security agents to maintain law
and order is to enable us to conduct free, fair and
acceptable elections’’, he said.
Okojie advised corps members to be patriotic in
the elections.
Freeman Tumba, the State Coordinator of NYSC,
commended the role of corps members in the
country’s electoral process so far.
He said corps members were the best set of
Nigerians to bring credibility to the nation’s
electoral process.
