The Defence Headquarters has reacted to entreaties in some quarters to abort the fourth Republic and take over power from incumbent President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
In a rejoinder to the charge, the armed forces said they would not get involved in any act that will sabotage the hard-earned democracy in our country.
It came via a statement the Spokesman of the DHQ, Brig.- Gen. Tukur Gusau released.
“We detest any attempt by any individual or group to instigate the law-abiding Armed Forces of Nigeria to embark on any unconstitutional change of government in our country.
“We wish to state unequivocally that the military is happy and better under democracy and will not get involved in any act to sabotage the hard-earned democracy in our country.
“The AFN under the leadership of the Chief of Defence Staff, General CG Musa, is determined to ensure complete subordination of the Armed Forces to constitutional authority under His Excellency, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and will not be distracted from its roles that are well defined in the 1999 constitution (as amended),” the statement read.
