The National Leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Bola Tinubu says he made a mistake when he called for 50 million Nigerians to be recruited into the Nigerian army.
In a statement on Tuesday, Tinubu described his call as an “accidental verbal mistake.
“
The media office said in a statement first reported by Thecable that “Asiwaju seeks the expansion of security personnel by 50,000 for the armed forces, not the 50 million that was mentioned in error.”
