Army leader Major Gen. Gold Chibuisi told soldiers how to handle civilians wearing military clothes. He said regular people must not wear army uniforms since it breaks Nigerian law. Soldiers should act properly when they find someone in military gear. They must make the person take off the uniform, arrest them, and pass them to the police for charges. The general noted that many soldiers faced punishment after they attacked people wearing camouflage.
Chibuisi expressed surprise that uniform problems persist despite many briefings about them. He asked civilians to stop wearing military clothes regardless of how much they like them. The army trains soldiers to handle these situations correctly without extra rough treatment. Officials will continue to punish harshly any soldiers who mistreat civilians caught in military attire. The army stays committed to professional behavior when dealing with uniform violations.
