The Federal government has denied claims that President Buhari has fired two service chiefs. Read the press statement below...
The attention of the Honourable Minister of Defence Mansur Muhammad
Dan-Ali was drawn to some online publications claiming that he has sent
letters to the Chiefs of Defence Staff General Abayomi Gabriel
Olonisakin and of the Naval staff Vice Admiral Ibok-Ete Ekwe Ibas
directing them to hand over their offices on or before Friday Dec 16
Please be informed that there was no such
communication between the office of the Honourable Minister of Defence
and the service chiefs directing any one of them to hand over his office
and proceed on retirement.
The appointment and replacement of service chiefs are a prerogative
responsibility of the office of the President and Commander in Chief.
Please endeavor to always balance your stories from the right sources to
avoid mischief.
