The Nigerian Army has inaugurated a panel to investigate claims by the Taraba State governor and a former Army Chief that troops were on an ethnic cleansing mission. Inaugurating the panel at the Army Headquarters Abuja, the Chief of Army Staff Lieutenant General Tukur Buratai urged the members to visit Taraba State to determine if the claims are true.
He noted that the reputation of the Army was at stake and the reason why the panel is being inaugurated.
Retired General Theophilus Danjuma had asked Nigerians, particularly those resident in taraba state to protect themselves as the army was no longer able to protect them.
