Retired Army Chief Takes Legal Action Over Alleged Terrorism Financing Claims

Usman explained that the claims, reportedly made by retired Major-General Danjuma Ali-Keffi during a broadcast interview, prompted Yahaya to act swiftly to protect his name. Through his legal team, led by Senior Advocate of Nigeria Mohammed Ndayako, Yahaya served formal demand notices on the individuals and media outlets involved. The notices, dated December 17, 2025, gave the parties 72 hours to retract the allegations, issue public apologies, and cease further publication or discussion of the claims.
The notices warned that failure to comply would trigger legal action, highlighting the serious nature of spreading false information. “False and malicious allegations of this nature are dangerous and capable of undermining public trust in our national institutions and those who have served the nation with distinction,” the statement read.
Usman noted that Yahaya’s legal action is not only aimed at defending his personal honour but also at reinforcing principles of professionalism, truth, and accountability. “Gen. Yahaya emphasised that malicious falsehoods would not go unchallenged and that the action reflects his commitment to uphold integrity in public service,” Usman added.
