A suspected drunk driver has hit
the official car of Tukur Buratai, chief of army staff, injuring his aide de
camp (ADC).
The accident reportedly occurred
at Jere town, Kaduna state.
The car, in a convoy, was on the
way to Kaduna around 6pm on Sunday when the accident happened, as a lone
civilian vehicle veered off its lane and rammed into it.
“The COAS was not in the car.

hospital for medical attention,” the army tweeted.
“The driver of the civilian car
that rammed into the convoy of the COAS is presently receiving medical
attention at a NA Medical facility. Case has been reported to Police and
Investigation has commenced. Initial findings showed driver was under the
influence of alcohol.”
