| HYPOCRITES! No safe haven for human rights violators in the army - Buratai Nigerian Army Chief |
The above statement credited to the Nigerian Army is highly hypocritical. This is the same Nigerian Army that has been shooting at unarmed Biafran protesters!
He further claimed that the Armed Forces of Nigeria (AFN) is established by the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria and therefore guided by law in all its affairs.

The statement by the Nigerian Army is deceitful and self-serving aimed at hoodwinking international community currently mounting pressure on Buhari to stop brutalising and intimidating Biafrans. This same army threatened to deploy fully against peaceful protesting Biafrans and applying Rules of Engagement on non-combatant civilians.
