December 01, (THEWILL) – The Federal Government has warned state governors using thugs to disrupt campaigns by opposition political parties.
National Security Adviser (NSA), Major General Babagana Monguno (retd), issued the warning on Thursday, at a Ministerial Media Briefing, organised by the Presidential Communications Team, at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
Monguno warned that when the law enforcement agencies move, there will be no hiding place for the perpetrators who disrupt opposition parties from conducting campaigns.
The NSA was reacting to reports of state governors implementing policies that prevent the presence of opposition campaign materials in their states.
Monguno, who blamed the action on what he described as “inferiority complex”, warned governors to restrain their thugs.
Noting that President Muhammadu Buhari has given clear directives that the 2023 election must be free, fair and credible, Monguno warned the governors to “call their Capo regime to order because when we move, there will be no hiding place.”
