The Nigerian Army (NA) has approved a list of hotlines to monitor and report any suspicious act or acts of violence by unscrupulous individuals or groups of individuals capable of disrupting the peaceful conduct of the 2023 general election.
According to the army, this was done to effectively carry out its constitutional mandate of providing support to civil authorities and collaborating with the police to ensure the protection of lives and property during the upcoming 2023 elections.
This is part of the NA’s effort to assist the other security agencies in conducting free, fair, and peaceful elections.
The NA had previously produced and distributed 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 urged to call the phone numbers listed below in their respective states, including the Federal Capital Territory of Abuja, to report any security breach during the elections.
