The Defence Headquarters, DHQ says it is concerned about a false and disturbing social media report twisted to state that the Armed Forces of Nigeria received request to effect change of leadership in the country.
A statement by Defence spokesperson, Brigadier-General Tukur Gusau says it is reiterating that the Armed Forces of Nigeria never received nor made such declaration at any time to anyone or any group.
The DHQ adds that the statement came from those who do not wish the country well. And surely the wicked imagination of a few who are not happy with the progress and well-being of the country.

Furthermore, it says the Armed Forces is very comfortable with democracy and remains loyal to the President and Commander-in-Chief, Bola Tinubu. And that the military is always willing and ready to defend the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
It urges those peddling such falsehood to desist from it or face the law. The Military and indeed other security agencies are on the look out for these agents of doom. And must all join hands to strengthen democracy.
