AndroidViewModel - Making duplicate calls doesn't return data in observe function

My question is related to ViewModel second time returns null wherein I am not getting callback inobserve function if I make a repeated call to server. Following is the code I am using -

@Singleton
public class NetworkInformationViewModel extends AndroidViewModel {
  private LiveData<Resource<NetworkInformation>> networkInfoObservable;
  private final APIClient apiClient;

  @Inject
  NetworkInformationViewModel(@NonNull APIClient apiClient, @NonNull Application application) {
    super(application);
    this.apiClient = apiClient;
    getNetworkInformation();
  }

  public LiveData<Resource<NetworkInformation>> getNetworkInfoObservable() {
    return networkInfoObservable;
  }

  // making API calls and adding it to Observable
  public void getNetworkInformation() {
    networkInfoObservable = apiClient.getNetworkInformation();
  }
}

In Activity, the ViewModel is defined as followed -

final NetworkInformationViewModel networkInformationViewModel =
      ViewModelProviders.of(this, viewModelFactory).get(NetworkInformationViewModel.class);
    observeViewModel(networkInformationViewModel);

The observeViewModel function is used to add observable on ViewModel.

public void observeViewModel(final NetworkInformationViewModel networkInformationViewModel) {
    networkInformationViewModel.getNetworkInfoObservable()
      .observe(this, networkInformationResource -> {
        if (networkInformationResource != null) {
          if (networkInformationResource.status == APIClientStatus.Status.SUCCESS) {
            Timber.d("Got network information data");
          } else {
            final Throwable throwable = networkInformationResource.throwable;
            if (throwable instanceof SocketTimeoutException) {
              final NetworkInformation networkInformation = networkInformationResource.data;
              String error = null;
              if (networkInformation != null) {
                error = TextUtils.isEmpty(networkInformation.error) ? networkInformation.reply : networkInformation.error;
              }
              Timber.e("Timeout error occurred %s %s", networkInformationResource.message, error);

            } else {
              Timber.e("Error occurred %s", networkInformationResource.message);
            }
            if (count != 4) {
              networkInformationViewModel.getNetworkInformation();
              count++;
              // Uncommenting following line enables callback to be received every time 
              //observeViewModel(networkInformationViewModel);
            }
          }
        }
      });
  }

Uncommenting the following line in above function allows the callback to come everytime, but there has to be a proper way of doing this.

//observeViewModel(networkInformationViewModel);

Please note:- I don't need RxJava implementation for implementing this.
