Chief of Defence Staff, General Christopher Musa, has said those calling for a coup because of the economic hardship do not mean well for Nigeria.
Following the economic hardship, some people have urged the military to stage a coup in support of the people’s plight.
Speaking to journalists after commissioning the main entrance of the 6 Division, Nigerian Army and Officers Transit Accommodation, in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, Musa said the law would catch up with those advocating for a coup.

“We want to make it very clear that the Armed Forces of Nigeria are here to protect democracy,” he said.
“We all want democracy and we do better under democracy. And so we will continue to support democracy. And any of those ones that are calling for anything other than Democracy are evil people.”
The Defence Chief said it is glaring that with democracy a lot of things are happening in Nigeria.
He admitted that the country is going through trying periods but stated that in life nothing is hundred percent.
