Nigerian Navy warns against mutiny


The Eastern Naval Command of the Nigerian Navy has cautioned its officers and ratings against mutiny in the service.

Flag Officer Commanding, ENC, Rear Admiral Obiora Medani, gave the warning on Saturday during the Command’s Third Quarter March in Calabar, Cross River State.

Medani, who noted that the current security challenges in some parts of the country called for more dedication to duty, urged his men to cooperate with other security agencies and to be law abiding at all times.

“The present security challenges in some parts of the country calls for serious dedication to duty, discipline and utmost sacrifice. The Service will not tolerate acts of indiscipline, mutiny and other acts inimical to service laws,” he said.

The FOC, who spoke through the Command’s Chief Staff Officer, Rear Admiral Joseph Okojie, explained that the exercise was a testimony to his men’s physical fitness to withstand any challenge that might arise in the course of discharging their duties.

The route exercise, which commenced at 5:45am from NNS Victory parade ground, saw the officers and ratings marched through major streets in Calabar, the Cross River capital, to the admiration of the residents.
