By Olayinka Ajayi
The Nigerian Army said it will soon commence its annual training programme, the ‘Operation Python Dance III’ in South-East States.
Speaking yesterday in Enugu, Maj.Gen.Emmanuel Boman Kabuk said: “Exercise Egwu Eke III, is a training exercise for troops of 82 Division of the Nigerian Army and during the training, if there are criminal activities like armed robbery, kidnapping and other criminal activities that distort peace and tranquility of the citizenry along the line, the Army will not close its eyes and watch those criminals activities to thrive.”
Gen. Kabuk further urged law abiding citizens of South East to go about their legitimate businesses, saying “those afraid of the exercise are criminal elements that do not want their activities checked and are just being afraid of the consequences of their heinous criminal actions.”
Maj. Gen Kabuk , who was accompanied by some senior Army officers from 82 Division, was led round the Onitsha military cantonment for inspection of equipment and facilities by the Commander, 302 Artillery Regiment, General Support, Col. Idongesit Akpan.
