A report by a newspaper (not The PUNCH) had claimed the Defence Chief had passed away.

However, the DHQ in a post on X on Tuesday said the Defence Chief is well and alive.

“Contrary to recent false publication, the Chief of Defence Staff, General Christopher Gwabin Musa, is alive and well.

“Please rely on credible sources for accurate information,” the post partly read.

The PUNCH reports that Musa was appointed by President Bola Tinubu as the Chief of Defence Staff on June 19, 2023.
