Coup allegation: I acted out of patriotism, frustration with Nigeria — Army Colonel Ma’aji
ABUJA — A Nigerian Army Colonel, Mohammed Ma’aji, accused of involvement in an alleged plot to overthrow the government of President Bola Tinubu, has said his actions were driven by patriotism and frustration over what he described as worsening conditions in the country.
He maintained that he and others involved had no other country to call their own and urged the authorities to consider their contributions to national security alongside the allegations against them.
On the alleged coup plot itself, Ma’aji said the movement was never intended to destabilise the country, insisting that it was motivated by what he described as love for Nigeria.
