The Military High Command yesterday debunked a report making the rounds that there was a plan to overthrow the democratically elected administration of President Muhammadu Buhari.
The Defence Headquarters, (DHQ), through its Directorate of Army Public Relations, cited as false the report making the rounds, with the caption: “Defence Headquarters warns soldiers against overthrowing Buhari’s regime”.
The DHQ, in an issued statement signed by Brig-Gen. Onyema Nwachukwu, said the viral publication that the “Defence Headquarters has denounced a call for the military to take over the reins of power” was riddled with outrageous lies and fabrications.
Nwachukwu mentioned that the Army Spokesman at no time made such a statement and does not speak for the Defence Headquarters as claimed by the report.
“It is therefore a figment of their imagination, which did not in anyway emanate from Brig Gen Nwachukwu“.
