The Nigeria Defense Headquarters has warned Nigeria politicians and other unauthorized persons who wear military uniforms for electioneering campaign posters.

In a statement signed by Air Commodore Wap Maigida, Acting Director of Defense Information and made available to EMERALD NEWS, the Defence Headquarters said it is disturbing that some politicians have formed the habit of wearing military uniforms and accoutrements for campaign posters.

The statement said the campaign posters of some governors, dressed in military camouflage uniforms, are displayed in noticeable areas in their respective states.

This, the statement noted, is manifestly illegal and an abuse of the privilege of allowing civilians wear military uniforms during military training exercises.

According to the Defense Headquarters: ‘It is necessary to restate that the Armed Forces of Nigeria, as a professional institution, remains apolitical and, as such, would not want to be dragged into any form of political bias.

“Accordingly, it is important to advise politicians and others to desist from the use of military uniforms and accoutrements for political events and other engagements henceforth.

“Please note, anyone found culpable in this regard would be liable to prosecution.”
