The attention of the Nigerian Army ( NA) has been drawn to an old video posted on various social media platforms by unscrupulous elements showing troops chanting, ‘’Enough Is Enough: They’re Playing Politics With People’s Lives, Without Ammunitions ..’’

The Nigerian Army wishes to state clearly that the said video is an old audio-visual being recycled with the obnoxious and malicious intent of denigrating the Nigerian Army, particularly at a time when the institution is doing everything to reinvigorate its efforts in containing security challenges bedevilling our country.

While it is needless to join issues with such unpatriotic elements, it is pertinent to assert that the NA is not lacking in the requisite logistics to carry out her constitutional mandates. This is evident in the series of successes recorded in various theatres of operations.

As the NA continues to count on the support of well meaning Nigerians through the provision of credible information that could enhance the summounting of the security challenges bedeviling the nation, the general public is once again enjoined to refrain from circulating such mischievous contents, as it not only constitutes a distraction to ongoing operations, but serves to dampen the morale of the troops. The despicable act of recycling an old video just to gain traction on social media is therefore, undignifying and a complete distraction to the noble course of defending the territorial integrity of Nigeria.

The general public is thus entreated to always factcheck their information before sharing the content in order to prevent the spread of fake and misleading narratives.
