BREACH OF SECURITY: WE WILL NOT HESITATE TO DEAL WITH AGENTS OF INSECURITY – SAYS CHIEF OF DEFENCE STAFF, GENERAL MUSA

The Chief of Defence Staff, Gen. Christopher Musa, has threatened that the Nigerian Military will step in and quell the ongoing hunger protests if security breaches continue.

Musa said this while speaking at a press conference in Abuja on Friday.

Nigerians took to the streets from Thursday, August 1, showing their grievances against hunger and high cost of living in the country.

However, there have been cases of looting and destruction of properties in some states.

Musa said, “We are supporting the Police all through. We are just on standby. The Police is doing a good job; they are handling the situation for now.

“Unless it breaches beyond what they can handle, then the military will step in.

“The military is on standby and we are watching day and night.”
