The National Security Adviser (NSA) to the President, Babagana Monguno, has warned against plots to exploit the current socio-economy situation in Nigeria to ignite civil unrest before, during and after the general election.
Mr Monguno, represented by Sanusi Galadima, an official in the Office of NSA, gave the warning during the Inter-agency Consultative Committee on Election Security (ICCES) meeting held by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) in Abuja on Tuesday.
Mr Monguno, a retired major general, said the government was aware of plots by domestic subversive groups and their external collaborators to exploit the current socio-economic climate in the country occasioned by well-intended government policies to ignite civil arrest.
