This is to alert the general public on a recent false allegation against the troops of Operation LAFIA DOLE in the North East region of the Country. The allegation that troops are involved in illicit farming and fishing activities in Baga town is absolutely false, thus a campaign of calumny. It is baseless and unfounded and therefore should be discountenanced. The Nigerian Army urges citizens to always verify such allegations before forming opinions on sensitive subject of this magnitude bearing mind that such claims have implications on national security.
