A Nigerian Army To Appear In Court For Saying That The Real Buhari is Dead

ABUJA-FOR ALLEGED SPREADING FALSE RUMOUR THAT PRESIDENT MUHAMMADU BUHARI HAD DIED AT A TIME HE WAS RECEIVING MEDICAL TREATMENT OVER AN UNDISCLOSED AILMENT IN THE UNITED KINGDOM, A NIGERIAN ARMY GENERAL IS TO FACE TRIAL AT A MILITARY COURT.

BESIDES, BRIGADIER-GENERAL LYM HASSAN, ACCORDING TO A REPORT OBTAINED FROM AN ONLINE MEDIUM, WHICH THE ARMY AUTHORITIES WERE YET TO REACT TO AS AT THE TIME OF FILING THIS REPORT, WOULD FACE THE COURT- MARTIAL ON ANOTHER ONE COUNT CHARGE OF ALLEGED DEMAND OF $600,000 BRIBE FROM OPEMS INTEGRATED CONCEPTS LIMITED.

ALTHOUGH ENQUIRY BY VANGUARD FROM ARMY SPOKESMAN, BRIGADIER GENERAL SANI USMAN, THROUGH TEXT AND CALLS WERE WITHOUT RESPONSE AS A PRESS TIME, IT WAS LEARNT THAT THE ARMY OFFICER WITH ENLISTMENT NUMBER (N/826), WILL FACE PROSECUTION BY A MILITARY COURT-MARTIAL FOR FALSELY CLAIMING THAT PRESIDENT MUHAMMADU BUHARI HAD DIED WHEN HE WAS HOSPITALIZED IN LONDON ON A MEDICAL TREATMENT.

BRIGADIER GENERAL HASSAN, AS GATHERED, WAS SAID TO HAVE EQUALLY DEMANDED THE $600,000 AS BRIBE FROM A CONTRACTOR IN THE FEDERAL MINISTRY OF DEFENCE.

THE ONLINE MEDIUM REPORTED THAT THE NIGERIAN ARMY HEADQUARTERS HAS ALSO PREFERRED CHARGES AGAINST THE SENIOR OFFICER AND IS BILLED TO APPEAR IN THE MILITARY COURT ANY MOMENT.
