Chief of Army Staff, Gen. Tukur Buratai, has stated that the recent retiring of 38 top officials of the Nigerian army is timely.
“There is no better time than now because everything has been taken into consideration and procedures have been followed to ensure that we don’t pick the innocent ones. You can see it started with the enquiries first of all, legal review and after the legal review, we forwarded the report and recommendations to the authority for consideration,” he said.
“So it takes time, it is just like a court process, so we follow our own process, our administrative process and legal review as well. It is the right time and no any other time than now,”
He made the clarification while speaking with newsmen during a courtesy call on the Minister of Communications, Mr Adebayo Shittu, in Abuja.
