The Nigerian Army, says members of the proscribed Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB) are using pictures of fake soldiers arrested by Nigerian army troops recently to malign the institution.
The Director, Army Public Relations, Brig.-Gen. Onyema Nwachukwu, said this in a statement on Sunday in Abuja.
Nwachukwu said that one Solomon Okafor of Radio Biafra London, had been peddling a malicious disinformation and falsehood on social media , alleging complicity by troops in a fictitious case of kidnapping of a family of 10 in Kaduna State.
He said the said Okafor also alleged that about 87 per cent of Nigerian soldiers were kidnappers and bandits.
