The Minister of State for Defence, Bello Matawlle has directed the Defence Intelligence Agency (DIA) to go after all the propagators calling for truncation of the constitutional government in the country, describing them as criminals and enemies of democracy who should be brought to justice.
According to the Minister, some mischief makers posted viral videos and inciting statements on the media depicting a false situation and impression and encouraging the military to truncate the constitution, which they will never do because they have been aligned with democratic culture, which makes coups no longer fashionable.
He described those calling for the undemocratic change of government as “agents of darkness.”
Matawalle’s directive was contained in a statement signed by Mr Henshaw Ogubike, Director of Press and Information, MOD, titled, “Democracy is Working in Nigeria, Warns those Calling for Truncation of Constitutional Government.
He, therefore, urged all Nigerians to come together to support and keep faith in the government of President Bola Tinubu in his efforts to make Nigeria great, reaffirming the commitment of the Armed Forces of Nigeria to defend the constitution and uphold democracy, assuring the public of the military’s readiness to ensure the safety and security of the nation.
