Ø Says spiritual warfare prevented deaths at Lekki Toll Plaza
The Chief of Army Staff, Lt.-General Tukur Yusuf Buratai, has warned generals against coup, vowing that the Nigerian Army will never tolerate any agent of destabilization bent on scuttling the current democratic dispensation.
Buratai, who spoke on Friday during the decoration of the Army’s 39 newly promoted Major-Generals, said he was aware that some generals were being approached, saying his eyes are on them.
Disclosing that the Army hierarchy was aware of some interests making efforts to interact with certain personnel, General Buratai expressed confidence in the discipline and loyalty of the newly decorated officers.
The Army Chief of Staff also disclosed that spiritual warfare helped prevent deaths during military intervention at the Lekki toll plaza, Lagos state on October 20.
Buratai said a spiritual warfare seminar held by the army helped in preventing deaths at the protest ground – although there are still controversies on the casualty figure, adding that most of the newly decorated generals are also graduates of spiritual warfare seminar.
