Security Debarment Allowance: Military Veterans to Protest at Defence Ministry

Military veterans under the aegis of the Retired Members of Nigerian Armed Forces (REMENAF) and the Coalition of Concerned Veterans (CCV) will stage their third phase of protest at the Ministry of Defence, Abuja on Monday.

A statement signed by REMENAF’s National Secretary, Ambassador Roy Okhidievbie said the demonstrationis to demand the payment of their security debarment allowance.

The former military men had picketed the ministries of finance, defence, and the National Assembly earlier in 2022, in pursuit of the same demand.

The protesters plan to block access to the Ministry of Defence’s Ship House on Olusegun Obasanjo Way.
