Defence Headquarters on Tuesday described as unfortunate, unethical and lacking credibility an online media report alleging that the Chief of Defence Staff (CDS), General Christopher Musa passed away yesterday.
Director, Defence Information, Brigadier General Tukur Gusau stated this in a press release on Tuesday.
The DDI said the CDS is alive and hearty.
He said “The Chief of Defence Staff who just returned from an official assignment outside the country has resumed work with more vigour to continue with his uncommon leadership style to prosper the Armed Forces of Nigeria .
“The online newspaper have since retracted the news story and offered its unreserved apology to the CDS, his family and the Armed Forces of Nigeria.”
