RE: MILITARY OFFICERS REFUSED BURATAI'S "ILLEGAL ORDERS".#PRESS RELEASE.

       It is glaring that those who are determined to denigrate the office and person of the Chief of Army Staff (COAS) Nigerian Army (NA) are terribly bent on going to any length to arm twist or trivialize whatever he does or says in the course of official engagements. Thus, little wonder when my attention was drawn to a mischievous publication gyrating in the social media outlets ascribing bogus and bunkum statements allegedly coming from the NA Chief, Lt Gen TY Buratai during his meeting with his Principal Staff Officers, General Officers Commanding, Commanders and Directors at the Army Headquarters Conference Room Abuja on Wednesday the 20th of February 2019. The major allegation in the publication is that - 'there is disquiet within the top echelon of the army following an emergency meeting summoned by COAS to appeal to senior army officers to work towards the victory of President Muhammadu Buhari for the 23 February 2019 Presidential election'. For the fact that

       Lagos State Government has advised its senior officers who are still in active service to start planning for their retirement and also familiarise themselves with all retirement benefits in order to make informed decisions. The State Commissioner for Establishment, Training and Pensions, Dr. Akintola Benson-Oke gave the advice on Tuesday at a training programme organised by Ministry of Establishments, Training and Pensions at Golf View Hotel & Suites, Ikeja, Lagos for very senior Directors in the State Public Service.

DEMOCRACY WILL NOT BE EMASCULATED IN NIGERIA.#PRESS RELEASE.

       I thank the Nigerian people who trooped out in their millions to perform their civic duty this past Saturday. The patriotism of Nigerians is heartwarming and affirms my oft-repeated statement that we are brothers and sisters born from the womb of one mother Nigeria. With regards to the Presidential elections that took place on February 23, 2019, it is clear that there were manifest and premeditated malpractices in many states which  negate the results announced. One obvious red flag is the statistical impossibility of states ravaged by the war on terror generating much higher voter turnouts than peaceful states. The suppressed votes in my strongholds are so apparent and amateurish, that I am ashamed as a Nigerian that such could be allowed to happen. How can total votes in Akwa-Ibom, for instance, be 50% less than what they were in 2015? Another glaring anomaly is the disruption of voting in strongholds of the Peoples Democratic Party in Lagos, Akwa-Ibom, Rivers and dive
