Ex-Defence Chief Olawunmi Accuses Officials of Terrorism

Retired Commodore Kunle Olawunmi, former Commandant of the Defence Intelligence College and ex-Deputy Director of Defence Administration at the Defence Headquarters, alleged that certain Nigerian government officials, including senators, governors, and ministers, are involved in sponsoring terrorism. During an interview with media personality and political scientist Edmund Obilo, Olawunmi stated that these officials, who are supposed to ensure the welfare and security of their citizens, have instead become sources of instability.

He emphasized the gravity of the situation, asserting that there is "overwhelming evidence" of their involvement in terrorist activities against Nigeria. Olawunmi questioned how these officials could betray their responsibilities and turn against the very citizens they are meant to protect, highlighting a significant threat to national security.
