The Nigerian Defence Headquarters has dismissed the report that the Chief of Defence Staff, General Christopher Musa, has died, describing it as false and untrue.
A report by few newspapers was circulating on Tuesday, claiming that Musa had died.
However, a swift reaction by the DHQ in a post on X disclosed that the Defence Chief is well and alive.
It described the report as false publication adding that the Chief of Defence Staff is hale and hearty.
“Contrary to recent false publication, the Chief of Defence Staff, General Christopher Gwabin Musa, is alive and well,” DHQ wrote.
“Please rely on credible sources for accurate information,” it added.
Gen. Musa was appointed by President Bola Tinubu as the Chief of Defence Staff on June 19, 2023.
