The Centre for Anti-Corruption and Open Leadership, CACOL, has challenged the Chief of Army Staff, COAS, Lt. Gen. Tukur Buratai to immediately identify and fish out military officers and other individuals who are alleged to be hobnobbing with politicians ostensibly to overthrow the present democratically elected government.
The media reported on Tuesday that the COAS alleged that some people were approaching soldiers for political reasons while issuing a warning to soldiers who might heed to such overtures and pointing the serious consequences.
The Executive Chairman of CACOL, Mr. Debo Adeniran while responding to the news on behalf of the Centre said, “this an issue that has to be nipped in the bud with immediate alacrity because of grievous consequence a coup portends for a democratic Nigeria. The suspected military officers must be immediately identified, investigated and punished according to extant laws if found culpable to protect the subsisting democratic and the rule of law.”
