The Chief of Army Staff (COAS), Lt.-Gen. Tukur Buratai has said that officers and soldiers on duty should no longer post the activities, either pictures or videos of their operations on social media. Speaking on behalf of COAS, the General Officer Commanding (GOC), 1 Division Mechanized Army, Maj.-Gen. Adeniyi Oyebade at the graduation ceremony of men of Nigerian Battalion (NIBBAT) 46, which took place at the Nigerian Army Peace Keeping Centre (NAPKC), Jaji in Kaduna State, he said,
“Specifically, I want to warn you on the use of social media. While you are on operation, you may want to take shots of some good moments but you should be very careful while doing that. Avoid any picture or video that has to do with your colleague or operation. You are barred not to upload such information. It is prohibited to upload any picture with your uniforms while in operation because it will become a pragmatic problem for the Nigerian Army.”
