The Federal Government has dismissed as false reports circulating on social media alleging that the Minister of Defence, General Christopher Gwabin Musa (Rtd.), plans to resign from office.

In a statement issued on Monday, the Office of the Minister described the reports as “malicious” and “entirely fabricated,” urging the public to disregard them.

The statement, titled “False Rumour Regarding the Honourable Minister of Defence,” was signed by the Minister’s Special Assistant on Media, Leah Katung-Babatunde.
