We do not see this incident as a lack of professionalism on the part of the Nigerian Army, as suggested. While we are tempted to forgive the ignorance of these groups, we are convinced that these accusations are part of a larger conspiracy to discredit the CDS. This is clearly a case of giving a dog a bad name in order to hang it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The forum commended the sobriety of the Nigerian Army led by the Chief of Army Staff, Lt Gen Taoreed Lagbaja, for accepting responsibility for the unfortunate incident and for confirming that the bombing was a mistake and agreed entirely that in situations as this, mistakes are bound to be made, and this is not the first time that such a mistake has been made.<\/p>\n<p>The statement explained that the group\u2019s experience with General CG Musa is that not only does he have a good mind, but he also uses it well to the benefit of all.<\/p>\n<p>The forum noted that in the struggle against terrorists and bandits, the Nigerian military had recorded significant successes in the past few months to the admiration of Nigerians, saying it must not be tired and must not give up in the fight against terrorism and banditry.<\/p>\n<p>The statement acknowledged the efforts being made by the regime of President Tinubu in securing the lives and properties of Nigerians, and Governor Uba Sani who has shown in his speeches, actions and body language a genuine desire to end insecurity in Kaduna State.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/nigeria\">Nigeria<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Nigeria.
