The Guards Brigade, Nigerian Army, has said that it deployed its soldiers to the three arm zone where the National Assembly is located earlier today to forestall a planned invasion of the area by the Islamic Movement of Nigeria (IMN) also known as the shiite group.
The Brigade, in a statement, debunked media reports alleging that the deployment was aimed at taking over the National Assembly complex and urged the public to disregard the report and go about their normal duties.
Assistant Director in charge of Public Relations, Captain Timothy Tagwai, in the statement said, “The attention of Guards Brigade Nigerian Army has been drawn to unfounded and unsubstantiated news trending on some online platforms about the presence of Military personnel at the National Assembly.
“The report that soldiers were trying to take over the National Assembly is false and misleading.
