'2019 Army Elections Interference, The Worst In Nigeria's History' - Wike.
Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Ezenwo Wike has said that the negative roles played by the Nigerian Army during the 2019 general elections is the worst in the history of the country.
He said: “Throughout my experience politically, I have never seen the Nigerian Army play the kind of role they played during the last General Elections.“The Nigerian Army purely made political interferences all through. We will show you the visuals of the roles played by the Nigerian Army. If you go to the 6 Division, unless they have moved them out, you will see ballot boxes and electoral materials. The 6 Division served as the take off base for the Electoral Interference.
The Governor regretted that the challenge came during the Collation, when operatives of the Nigerian Army invaded Collation Centres to cart away Form EC 8C for the Governorship Election and Form EC 8b1 for the House of Assembly elections. He noted that the situation became so bad that the Minister of Transportation had more than a platoon of soldiers attached to him each time he visited Rivers State to carry out his anti-democratic activities.
He particularly decried the invasion of the home of the Rivers State Education Commissioner , the harrassment of his family and his subsequent arrest.
