Ondo Guber: CDS Musa assures of security agencies’ neutrality
The Chief of Defence Staff, CDS, Gen. Christopher Musa, has assured that security agencies would be non-partisan and impartial in their role in the November 16 governorship election in Ondo State.
Musa gave the assurance on Thursday in Akure during a meeting with the head of security agencies in Ondo State ahead of the governorship election.
The CDS said he was in the state on the directives of President Bola Tinubu to coordinate and ensure synergy among security agencies to provide cover during the election.
He charged the security forces to be professional in discharging their duties.
Musa, who commended the security forces for their conduct in the last Edo governorship election, charged them to repeat the feat achieved there in Ondo State.
“As security agencies, we are working together as a team and Ondo State has been a very peaceful place.
“We want to sustain that and ensure that this is the best election in Ondo State. I want to appeal to all Nigerians, especially good people of Ondo State, that they should all come out en mass to vote for whom they want.
“Nobody will intimidate you, the electorate. Security forces are working like a team. We are one family as Nigerians. Our own job is to make sure that we provide an enabling environment, and we are going to do that,” he said.
Musa, therefore, called on all heads of security agencies, particularly in the state, to monitor their men in the field so that they do not derail from their mandate.
The heads of security agencies including NSCDC, Nigeria Immigration Services, FRSC, Police and others all pledged their commitments to ensure their men discharge their duties well.

War: This should be the end – US on Israeli latest attack on Iran
The US has said that the latest attack on Iran by Israel should be the end of such exchanges between the two nations.
US said it did not participate in the strikes across Iran.
The US, however, said it worked with the Israeli government to encourage a low-risk attack with no civilian harm.
A senior US administration official said this late on Friday, adding that it appears that is what was achieved.
The official described the strikes as “extensive”, “precise” and against military targets across Iran.
“The effect was a proportionate self-defence response. The effect is to deter future attacks and to degrade Iran’s abilities to launch future attacks,” he said, according to Reuters.
The officials stressed that the US considered the operation to be an “end to the exchange of fire between Israel and Iran”.
“This should be the end of the direct military exchange between Israel and Iran – we had a direct exchange in April and that was closed off and now we’ve had this direct exchange again.”
