A former Minister of Aviation,
Femi Fani-Kayode has revealed why over 150 police officers absconded from their
counter-insurgency training exercise in the northeast.
Fani-Kayode writing on his
Twitter Page said the officers absconded because 91 percent were Christian and
88 percent were southerners.
He said, “Out of the 167 “runaway
policemen” that were assigned to fight Boko Haram, 91 percent were Christian
and 88 percent were southerners. Can you blame them for running?
“No matter how many Christmas
carols he sings, Buhari’s ethnic and religious agenda is becoming more obvious
by the day,”he added
Meanwhile, the Nigerian military
has offered a clear explanation on a news report that over 150 among the 2000
Policemen deployed to fight Boko Haram insurgents in the North East, absconded
from their counter-insurgency military training exercise.
Brigadier-General A. S. Ishaq,
the Coordinator Nigeria Police Force for Operation Lafiya-Dole (NPFOLD), in a
chat with PRNigeria, said there was nothing like Policemen absconding, but just
a case of some recalcitrant personnel leaving their training base for a reason
which was not cogent.
The top Army officer added that
the special training, which should have been concluded last Friday, was
extended for one week to enable the Policemen to partake in all the requisite
military combat exercises before they depart the camp.
