PREMIUM TIMES Replies the Nigerian Army, Threatens Legal Action and demands apology from Buratai

PREMIUM TIMES has replied a letter sent by the Nigerian Army, threatening legal action against the newspaper for alleged false publications about the army and its chief, Tukur Buratai, a Lieutenant General

Buratai  

 The Nigerian Army in an earlier letter,  had accused the Newspaper of publishing “false, unsubstantiated, and unprofessional” stories that provided no evidence to back its claim, and demanded it retracted the reports and apologised to the army and Mr. Buratai.

Instead of apologizing, the News platform  on Tuesday, through its lawyers, delivered a detailed response to the Army, affirming its stories, and unequivocally rejecting the demand for retractions and apology.

The paper, instead, asked the army to write a letter within seven days of receiving its reply, withdrawing the allegations and threats against it and its staff, or risk being sued.

Jiti Ogunye, the newspaper’s principal counsel, who signed the response, took the army to task on the “grave implications” of its letter, and describing the army’s letter as a threat to the well-being and life of PREMIUM TIMES’ staff.
