Nigerian Military Submits Coup Report to Tinubu After Investigations

The Nigerian military has handed over a report to Bola Tinubu, detailing an alleged coup attempt involving arrests and detentions of officers ranging from captains to brigadier generals. The Defence Intelligence Agency conducted thorough investigations following reports of a coup attempt in October last year.

Despite initial denials, the report submitted to Tinubu indicates a planned coup. The report is awaiting presidential approval for further action, potentially leading to sanctions against indicted officers.

Notable figures mentioned in the article include former Bayelsa State Governor Timipre Sylva, special advisers to the president Bayo Onanuga and Daniel Bwala, and former Director of Defence Information Brigadier General Tukur Gusau. Sunday Dare, a special adviser on media and public communication, dismissed the coup allegations against Tinubu's administration as unfounded, emphasizing the military's commitment to upholding the constitution and national security.
