The Nigerian Defence Academy(NDA) has denied the arrested of Sergeant Torsabo Solomon over his involvement in the security breach at the academy.
This was even as it refuted the claim that the Air force personnel was under its custody.
In a statement issued by the NDA spokesman, Major Bashir Muhammad Jajira on Tuesday said the arrested sergeant has no connection with Academy’s attack.
According to the statement, NDA is a Military Training Institution not Investigative Security Agency.
To this end, it advised the general public to disregard the information trending on the social media, saying, the perpetrators of the security breach at the academy will definitely be apprehended.
It would be recalled that a statement had earlier been issued announcing the arrest of Seargent Solomon over the attack on NDA.
This latest statement is however denying the arrest.
The full statement :
‘The attention of the Nigerian Defence Academy has been drawn to a viral publication on social media regarding the arrest of one Sgt Torsabo Solomon for his involvement on the security breach in Nigerian Defence Academy and was conveyed to the Academy for investigation.
