The Nigerian Army has set up a high powered Board of Inquiry (BOI) to investigate among other things alleged malpractices and involvement of its personnel in Ekiti and Osun States Gubernatorial Elections in 2014.
The
BOI is to investigate the alleged unprofessional and unethical conduct
of some Nigerian Army personnel in Ekiti and Osun States’ Gubernatorial
Elections 2014, as well as in any other State in Nigeria where other
allegations of misconduct were made during the 2015 General Elections in
the country.
As
part of its Terms of Reference, the BOI is to also review the
involvement of the Nigerian Army formations/units and its personnel in
elections and other duties in aid to civil authority.
The
essence of the Board is to prevent future unprofessional conduct by
officers and men in the performance of the constitutional roles while
strengthening Nigerian Army’s support to democratic values and
structures in Nigeria.
