Gen Chris Olukolade Was Never Fired As Falsely Reported By Sahara Reporters by ochejoseph(m): 9:07am On Jul 31, 2015

This Thread is in response the Misrepresentation  of Facts by Sahara reporters  who reported that the Former Director of Defence Intelligence was fired.  

http://saharareporters.com/2015/07/30/major-general-chris-olukolade-fired-director-defense-information

For the Records Major General Chris Olukolade has reached the Mandatory age of retirement and Voluntarily applied to proceed on retirement in Nov 2014  but was denied such because the Army Council felt otherwise ( this was at a time the insurgency was at a peak and experience in information mgt was key) 

It is also common knowledge that Military tradition also forbids a senior officer serving under a junior officer as such with the appointment of Buratai and others all senior officers ahead of them  had to go..... 

This is what the Man himself said 


The retiring Director of Defence Information and Chairman of Forum of Spokespersons of Security and Response Agencies (FOSSRA), Major-general Chris Olukolade, has handed over leadership of FOSSRA to the Director of Information, Nigeria Navy, Commodore Kabiru Aliyu.

At the monthly meeting of the forum at the Centre for Crisis Communication (CCC), in Abuja yesterday, Olukolade formally informed his colleagues about his retirement, having reached his retirement age.

According to him, he ought to have left the service since November 2014 when he applied for voluntary retirement but was not obliged by the Army Council who extended his stay in the service on the grounds that it was not proper for him to go at that time.

Speaking further, Olukolade thanked members of the forum and their agencies for the support and understanding  accorded him while he chaired the forum since its formation in 2013.

He also solicited the same measure of support for his successor while reminding them of the core essence of the forum which is to deepen the collaboration and understanding among the security and response agencies in information management and communication.‎

On behalf of all patriotic Nigerians we wish to thank General Chris Olukolade and all other officers   who have served this great  nation meritoriously  for their services and sacrifice towards the maintenance  of peace in our country.

 May History be kind to you all 

Best wishes
