The
attention of the Defence Headquarters (DHQ) has been drawn to some
newspaper publication by a group of persons threatened to embark on acts
of sabotage against the Nigerian state.
The
DHQ hereby warned that the military and other security agencies will
not condone any acts by individuals or group that is capable of breach
to security and economic sabotage in the Niger Delta or in any part of
the country. This is because, the nation’s interest is above that of
individual or group’s interest.
In
as much as the military recognizes the supremacy of the Constitution
which guarantees freedom of expression and association, the constitution
also frowns against individuals or groups hiding under it to stir up
trouble and insecurity in the land. Any individual or groups who have
genuine complain or grievances should use the available means of
dialogue for amicable resolution but certainly not violence, as it will
not be tolerated.
The
DHQ will continue to partner with other security agencies to protect
and provide enabling environment to all citizens to engage in their
respective and legitimate businesses without fear of molestation.
