Following an allegation that the Chief of Army Staff(COAS) Lt.-Gen. Tukur Buratai reportedly has $1.5 million Dubai property, the Presidency has left the Defence Headquarters (DHQ) to determine the Army chief’s fate. PRNigeria, the military under-cover media machinery, yesterday said the government investigated and cleared Lt.-Gen. Buratai over his assets. A source, who spoke in confidence, told THE NATION that: “The Presidency has asked the Defence Headquarters to handle issues on some assets traced to Lt.-Gen. Buratai and his wives in the UAE. The DHQ will determine his fate on whether or not he has violated any law and if he has to be sanctioned or not. Whatever the DHQ’s findings will be forwarded to the commander-in-chief. Let the military conduct its findings in line with its rules and regulations.”
