Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, has advised the Nigerian Army to focus on their traditional role of securing the country, instead of illegally delving into politics, which has destroyed their image .
He said that the army must channel her resources to where they were needed for the good of the country. “But they played very negative roles during the elections. The Army was involved in ballot snatching and attempts to subvert the will of Rivers people. The authorities should work hard to change the perception of the Army on the streets “.
The governor said the N100 billion allocated to the Army in the 2020 budget was inadequate. He also wondered what had happened to the $1 billion withdrawn from the Excess Crude Account for the equipping of the Nigerian Army.
