The fake female Major  arrested wearing an Army uniform  and bearing a fake Army identity card was not with IED or children, the Army has clarified. The fake army officer who was arrested along Gwagwalada falsely claimed to be a Major in the Nigerian Army.

The fake officer who also claimed to be a serving Medical Doctor was alone when she was arrested. Military sources said she would be handed over to the police after interrogation and documentation for prosecution.

Contrary to insinuation, the fake Major Juliana Gumel  was not carrying Improvised Explosive Devices  (IED) nor was she with kids when she was arrested.

Army spokesperson, Colonel Sani Kukasheka Usman said that the arrested perpetrator is undergoing interrogation.

He said: “she claimed to be a Medical Doctor and a ” Major” with a fake Private Soldier’s outdated identity card. But not with IED. I believe Guards Brigade or the Nigeria Police will issue a formal  statement on it.”
