The Federal Government will gradually withdraw military operations in some volatile spots in the country, beginning from the first quarter of 2020.

The withdrawal of troops will be done after an “assessment” to determine areas where peace has returned to enable civil authorities to assume full control of security.

The decision was reached during a Security Council meeting, which ended at the Presidential Villa, Abuja, around 1.50 pm.The Council decided that in place of the military, the Nigeria Police Force, which has the primary responsibility of providing internal security, will assume its duties fully in such areas.

“Also, you will remember that additional 10,000 personnel were approved for the police recently for recruitment”, he added. Ekwe Ibas declined to name the specific states of geopolitical zones where the military would withdraw its operations. Recall that the military runs several joint internal operations in various parts of the country with different code names to combat one security threat or another.

Why?

Disinformation

And allow insurgencies to take over the 'spots'? Is that the 'final answer' from the FG?

Did I read this headline right? If they are moved from volatile spots, where will they move them? To safe areas Confused

Isin't this rather too early?

InibeheEffiong come & see ooo. They've given your thought a buy in. Ignorance is why our rights will continue to be usurped.

Volatile spots

So they can send them to build more road blocks in the south east and south south.
