Defence HQ Condemns New York Time Report On Nigeria's Military



DEFENCE Headquarters (DHQ), Ministry of Defence has sharply criticized a May 23rd, 2014 report in the New York Times titled: “Nigeria’s Army Hampers Hunt for Kidnapped Girls,” describing it as ‘reckless, unprofessional’ and aimed at ‘disparaging and rubbishing the relentless efforts of Nigerian troops in the ongoing search and rescue operations to free the abducted Chibok girls.’

In a statement issued Tuesday signed by Colonel Onyema Nwachukwu, the Army said the report by Adams Nossiter was biased and “typical of the unfortunate approach adopted by a section of the foreign media organisations which have continued to feast on insinuations aimed at casting aspersions on the Nigerian military.
