The Chief of Army Staff, Lt. Gen. Taoreed Lagbaja, has condemned the viral verbal attack on the Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, by individuals claiming to be officers of the Nigerian Army for arresting a soldier for driving against traffic. For every other comical act that you have seen on social media, they are not personnel of the Nigerian Army. “From the mode of dressing of some of them, you will know that they are not personnel of the Nigerian Army. One of them was wearing the cap badge upside down, and you will know that that is not a personnel of the Nigerian Army. Following this, some yet-to-be-identified er soldiers slammed the Lagos State Governor for ordering the arrest of their colleague, and faulted him for calling the soldier “useless” in the presence of others.
