Chief of Army Staff, Lt.-Gen. Tukur Buratai
Following controversies surrounding the Chief of Army Staff, Lt.-Gen. Tukur Buratai's properties worth $1.5m in Dubai, human rights lawyer, Mr. Femi Falana (SAN), on Sunday urged President Muhammadu Buhari to immediately sack Buratai or ask him to resign.
According to Punch, Falana described as cock and bull story the explanation by the Nigerian Army authorities that Buratai paid for the properties in installments through his personal savings.
He regretted that the name of the Nigerian Army had been “illegally” used to defend Buratai in the unfolding scam.
While he condemned the involvement of the Nigerian Army in defending Buratai, he said no one had yet to explain to Nigerians how an army General could manage to save $1.5m.
He added, “In view of the ban on the opening and operation of foreign accounts by public officers, the Code of Conduct Bureau should be involved in the investigation.
“If the Chief of Army Staff does not deem it fit to resign forthwith President Buhari should not hesitate to remove him in the interest of national morality.”
