General John Enenche speaks on alleged plans to overthrow Buhari

The Nigeria defence headquarters has stated that there is no confirmation of a coup plot against the current government.


Recall that the Chief Of Army Staff, Tukur Buratai had alleged that some politicians were having meetings with military, a development that depicts coup d’ etat was imminent.

But speaking with journalists on Wednesday, John Enenche, spokesman of the DHQ, said there was no confirmation that a coup plot was being hatched.

He said the armed forces remained loyal to President Muhammadu Buhari, and “in complete subordination to civil rule.”

“All fears about a coup should be allayed as the contemporary Nigerian military is abreast with the best international practices in governance, which is democracy,” he said.

“It is pertinent to state that if there are signs of actions that point to likely breaches of military code of conduct as it were, professionally, it is a command responsibility to caution officers and men on routine basis to conform to ethics of the military,” he said.

“Officers and men are cautioned to exercise command and control by appropriate superior authorities through commanders at various levels.

“This is to prevent members of the armed forces from derailing from their core focus of total dedication to their oath of allegiance.

“Cautions or warnings are issued with investigations following.”
