Osun State Governor, Rauf Aregbesola,
on Tuesday stated that the Chief of
Army Staff, Lt. Gen. Tukur Buratai,
averted coup in Nigeria. Aregbesola made the declaration at the
Osun State House of Assembly in
Osogbo, the state capital. He urged the House to pass a
resolution commending Buratai for his
thorough professionalism and belief in
the current democracy. The governor also called for a probe
into the coup allegation with a view to
bringing any erring officer to book. Recall that Buratai, last week, said he
received information that some individuals were approaching some
officers and soldiers for political
reasons.
