Former Minister of Defence, Mohammed Badaru Abubakar, on Wednesday dismissed a viral report alleging that he resigned from office because he “could not stand and watch the US and Tinubu government bombing our brothers in the forest.”

In a statement, Badaru described the publication as false, malicious, and intended to misrepresent his reasons for leaving office. He stressed that he never made such comments, nor did any authorised representative speak on his behalf.

The former minister said the viral report appeared designed to tarnish his reputation, create friction between him and President Bola Tinubu, and generate unnecessary controversy. He clarified that the reasons for his resignation had been formally communicated to the President and were already public through official channels.

Badaru reaffirmed his commitment to Nigeria’s peace and stability and reiterated his continued support for the All Progressives Congress (APC) ahead of the 2027 general elections.

He urged the public to disregard the publication, describing it as the work of mischief makers.
