The National Security Adviser, Nuhu Ribadu has expressed displeasure at the Canadian Embassy for denying the Chief of Defence Staff, General Christopher Musa and other Army Chiefs visas.
He spoke in Abuja at the maiden annual lecture of the National Association of the Institute for Security Studies (AANISS) on Thursday.
Ribadu called the North American country unprintable names, dismissing them as inconsequential.
He was reacting to comments by General Christopher Musa who narrated how he and other top Military Officers were supposed to be in Canada for an official assignment on Wednesday, but were denied visas.

General Musa had said that the Canadian event is about honouring war veterans.
Ribadu stated that the denial is a clear reminder that the country must “stand on its own, stand strong as a nation and should no longer be taken for granted.”
