In his view, this would help deepen the relationship between the media and the military and prevent the misinformation that are put out by a section of the media.

“Media coverage of the security could be better if we are consulted before going to the press.Given the open door policy which we operate here we can be contacted but if you have people going to press without contacting us is worrisome”, he emphasized.

Rumours of Coup
