DHQ CLARIFIES: NO APPOINTMENT OF ACTING CHIEF OF ARMY STAFF; CALLS FOR MILITARY COUP IS TREASONABLE

The Defence Headquarters (DHQ) wishes to clarify that it has not announced the appointment of any senior officer as the acting Chief of Army Staff (COAS), contrary to speculation by certain media outlets. For the record, no such appointment exists within the Armed Forces of Nigeria (AFN).

The Chief of Army Staff, Lieutenant General Taoreed Lagbaja, is currently on a well-deserved rest as part of his 2024 annual leave. The AFN is professionally managed and all the Service Chiefs are performing their duties as stipulated in the Constitutionof the FGN. Major General Abdulsalam Bagudu Ibrahim, the Chief of Policy and Plans, is providing routine briefs to the COAS in accordance with standard military procedures.

The DHQ urges individuals spreading unfounded rumours to desist from doing so immediately. The COAS is hale and hearty and will soon resume normal duties at the end of his leave.

Media organizations are advised to verify information with the appropriate authorities before releasing fake news to the public. The CDS had only spoken with the COAS a few minutes ago.

Additionally, those advocating for a military takeover, as seen in a viral video, should be aware that such actions are treasonable under the Constitution.

The AFN is steadfastly committed to the preservation and advancement of our democracy and are loyal to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu's administration. The military remains focused on achieving its statutory responsibilities of protecting the nation's integrity.

The relative peace being enjoyed today is a direct result of the President's support for the military and the dedication of the AFN leadership.

To this end, the AFN and relevant security agencies have been mandated to take necessary action against any individual or group advocating for unconstitutional changes in the country. The CDS appreciates Nigerians for their support and prayers. Victory is assured.

No to the army taking over.

All the same, government should be sensitive to the people. The hardship in the land is too much.

Southwest Coward that commanded 1st Mechanized division, headed the special force to rid the north of terrorist and bandits. Many of you will live in your lifetime to regret all the slurs and insults you throw at folks from other ethnic groups. You and your people will live to reap what you sow just as your generation is reaping what your fathers sow by planning January 1966 coups, eliminating leaders from other ethnic groups.
