Danjuma’s call: Don’t dismiss allegation, says Ubani

Vice President of the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA) Monday
Ubani yesterday advised the government not to dismiss the
allegation by Gen. Theophilus Danjuma.

Ubani said the government should take his words with
seriousness, investigate it and determine its veracity.

He said: “Danjuma is not a small personality in Nigeria. He was
Chief of Army Staff and Defence Minister at different times.

“These are allegations which any serious government must
investigate and authenticate the veracity.

“Don’t dismiss it or attack the personality of the man who has
made it. What I expect the government to do is to investigate the
allegation to determine whether what he said is true or otherwise.
Our military must be warned to resist any attempt to be partisan,
they must remain impartial. They are men and women who have been
employed to protect the territorial integrity and citizens of this
country and not to take side and begin to kill the citizens they
were supposed to protect”.
