The 82 Division, Nigerian Army, Enugu on Friday reacted to news of tribal war in the barracks.

Colonel, Sagir Musa, Deputy Director, Public Relations, in a statement said the same “mischievous message was circulated in April and May 2017 and was adequately addressed by HQ 82 Division and the Army Headquarters.”

It stated that the report was totally false, insisting there was no ill feeling, grumbling or complain in Abakpa cantonment Enugu or in any army barracks in the South East Nigeria.

“The general public is hereby again enjoined to disregard this satanic message in its entirety as it is aimed at causing disaffection among the cohesive troops of the Division and to distract the Nigerian Army in discharging its noble constitutional roles of ensuring peace and security across the nation.

“The Division wishes to request interested individuals or groups to visit the Headquarters 82 Division/Abakpa cantonment and freely interact with troops with the view to verifying the falsity or otherwise of the issue”, it concluded.
