“CHIEF OF ARMY STAFF DIES OF CANCER.” The Chief of Army Staff, Lt. Gen. Taoreed Lagbaja, has died. Lagbaja died in an undisclosed hospital overseas nearly 48 hours ago from stage three cancer, according to a senior government official.
“The death of the Chief of Army Staff has been kept secret because of intense lobbying by some generals who want to take the position.
“Lagbaja, born on February 28, 1968, in Ilobu, Osun State, was appointed by President Bola Tinubu in June 2023, as the 27th Chief of Army Staff.”
But reacting, the Nigerian Army dismissed the claim, which it tagged “false.”
Meanwhile, the spokesman of the Nigerian Army, Onyema Nwachukwu, had said Labaja was on leave.
Nwachukwu said the Army Chief of Policy and Plans, Major General Abdulsalami Ibrahim, would act in Lagbaja’s stead.
Challenging The Army’s report, he urged them to produce a one second video of General Lagbaja on his sick bed.

I DARE THE MILITARY TO PRODUCE A ONE SECOND VIDEO OF THE CHIEF OF ARMY STAFF
We are entering the late President Musa Yar’Adua era again. The Chief of Army Staff, Lt. Gen. Taoreed Lagbaja, has died. If the Army says it’s “fake news”, let them produce a one second video of General Lagbaja on his sick bed.
General Lagbaja is paid with tax payers money and the tax payers deserve to know where the recipient of their tax money is. Not all the unnecessary denials. Enough of the game already.
