The Nigerian Army has placed Jackson Ude, a former aide to ex-President Goodluck Jonathan, on its most wanted list.
Ude is accused of planning a mutiny, overthrowing the democratically elected government, and inciting anarchy.
Recently, he sparked outrage with publications declaring the Chief of Army Staff, Lt. Gen. Abiodun Lagbaja dead and calling for a military coup in the country.
Ude’s alleged crimes extend to sponsoring bandits and Boko Haram, creating unrest in the region, and stealing gold from the Central Bank of Libya, currently under investigation by the Libyan government.
The Army’s declaration highlights Ude’s actions as a significant threat to national security, fueling insecurity and betraying the trust of millions of Nigerians striving for peace.
Despite being based in the US, Ude continues to make unfounded claims against the government and its officials on Twitter.
Reports suggest Ude is being bankrolled by a governor from the northwest, collaborating with retired former generals .
This alleged backing raises concerns about the extent of Ude’s influence and potential danger.
The Nigerian Army’s declaration underscores the severity of Ude’s alleged offenses and the need for swift action to prevent further instability in the region.
