The Nigerian Army has dismissed as false a report alleging that the Chief of Army Staff (COAS), Lieutenant General Waidi Shaibu, raised alarm over rising pipeline vandalism in the Niger Delta.
In a statement late Sunday, the Acting Director of Army Public Relations, Colonel Appolonia Anele, described the Sahara Reporters publication titled “Nigerian Army Chief Raises Alarm over Rising Pipeline Vandalism in Niger Delta” as misleading and a misrepresentation of facts.
