In what seems to have become a continuum, the Nigerian military has again reassured that it has no plans to truncate the democratic system of government in the country.
Nigeria’s Chief of Army Staff (COAS), Lieutenant General Taoreed Lagbaja, on Tuesday, sought to dispel concerns about military intervention in politics, emphasizing the army’s dedication to upholding the nation’s democracy.
In a statement delivered during a seminar at the Army Headquarters Department of Military Secretary in Abuja, General Lagbaja declared that the Nigerian Army has no intention of undermining democratic processes. He reiterated the military’s constitutional role, which includes defending the nation and supporting democratically elected leaders.
