Chief of Defence Staff, General Christopher Musa alive, hearty – DHQ

The Defence Headquarters has described a report as unfortunate, unethical and lacking credibility by an online newspaper alleging that the Chief of Defence Staff (CDS), General Christopher Musa passed away yesterday, Monday, 20 November 2023.

Director, Defence Information, Brigadier General Tukur Gusau in a press statement on Tuesday, 21 November 2023, said “To put the records straight, the CDS, General CG Musa is alive and hearty.

He noted that the Chief of Defence Staff who just returned from an official assignment outside the country has resumed work with more vigour to continue with his uncommon leadership style to prosper the Armed Forces of Nigeria.

“The online newspaper has since retracted the news story and offered its unreserved apology to the CDS, his family and the Armed Forces of Nigeria,” he stated
