A human rights group, the International Society for Civil Liberties and the Rule of Law, also known as Intersociety, has questioned the recent posting of the Nigerian Army because it is capable of increasing insecurity.
Umeagbalasi said: “Intersociety is deeply dismayed by new postings announced by the authorities of the Nigerian Army. The authorities of the Nigerian Army and the Presidency have continued to collapse the high command cadre of the army in the hands of northerners, particularly members of the northern Muslim population.
“It is not only that no South-east officer from the rank of major general was among those in the new postings as a GOC, but another northern Muslim Major General has been posted to 82 Division, Enugu as GOC.”
