The former Chief of Army Staff, Tukur Buratai, has allegedly denied the allegations made on him about diverting resources meant for the procurement of arms and ammunition during his tenure as the chief of staff.


The National Security Adviser, Babagana Monguno, had revealed the newly appointed chief of staff did not meet the funds approved for the procurement arms upon their resumption of office.


Monguno, has however, wave off the statement, saying he was misquoted.

Chief Buratai said, those with doubts should channel their queries to the ministry of defense for accurate details on how the funds meant for arms were utilized.

Buratai made this known, in a report signed by his lawyer, Osuagwu Ugochukwu.

The report reads:

“My attention has been drawn to an interview granted on BBC by National Security Adviser (NSA), RTD Major General Babagana Monguno, wherein he was alleged to have accused former service chiefs of filtering ARMS Fund away.

“I can confirm that Lt. General Buratai and other ex-service chiefs were never mentioned in the interview and neither was any arms fund missing under the stewardship of Lt. Gen T.Y. Buratai.

“Interestingly, NSA Babagana Monguno has denied making such accusations. We, therefore, urge members of the public to discountenance any such misquoted narrative suggesting sleaze on the integrity of Rtd Lt Gen T.Y. Buratai.

“Anyone interested in knowing how arms were procured by the ex-service chiefs and particularly Lt Gen T.Y. Buratai should channel such request for information to the Ministry of Defence.”
