FG Ignores Own Directive On 'flying Flags At Half Mast' To Honour Late COAS by Insidenaijasblo: 9:26pm On May 24, 2021

The Nigerian Government has ignored its own directive on 'flying flags at half mast' In honour of late Chief Of Army Staff, Attahiru, and other officers killed in plane crash on Friday May 21, 2021.

Newspremise had previously reported that, the president of Nigeria and commander-in-chief of the Nigerian Armed Forces, General Muhammadu Buhari(rtd) has ordered that the national Flag of Nigeria be flown at half-mast in all public buildings and official residences across the country, from Monday May 24 to Wedenday May 26, 2021.

But, checks by SaharaReporters in the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Abuja showed that there was no compliance with the directive as flags were seen in many parts of the city being flown at full mast, particularly at Eagle Square.

About 50 national flags mounted in front of the arcade which hosts national and international events were on full display without any sign of honour for the late officers.

There was little compliance with the directive in some of the ministries, public institutions and private organisations visited by our correspondent.

The officers lost their lives in an plane crash in Kaduna last friday while on their way to attend the passing-out parade of army recruits scheduled for Saturday,

Meanwhile, Nigerians have continued to react to the absence of the President and Vice President at the burial of the army officers which took place at the military cemetery on Sunday.
