Army Denies Haruna Garba Gololo Ever Served as a General

The Nigerian Army has issued a statement clarifying that social media figure Haruna Garba Gololo is not a retired Army officer or General. It said a recent online report erroneously described Gololo as a “retired Nigerian Army General,” warning that such misinformation could mislead the public and harm trust in national institutions. The Army urged all media outlets and platforms to verify facts, correct the error, and uphold responsible journalism when reporting on the Armed Forces. It asked Nigerians to rely on official channels for accurate updates and reaffirmed its commitment to transparency and the defence of Nigeria’s territorial integrity.
