The Federal Government has dismissed report that the Nigerian military ran a secret mass abortion programme in the war against Boko Haram.
Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Mohammed, debunked the report at the 10th edition of President Muhammadu Buhari’s Administration Scorecard Series, 2015-2023.
Mohammed, who described the news as is fake, and a ploy to demoralize and distract the fighting forces, queried the basis for the so-called investigation at a time the military had been recording successes in decimating the terrorists and rescuing abducted persons.
The Minister maintained that there was no secret, systematic and illegal abortion programme being run by the military in the Northeast or anywhere across the country.
