The Defence Headquarters has frowned at illegal use of military stickers and displaying of any form of Service insignia by unauthorized persons especially on vehicles.
In statement signed by Director Defence Information Brigadier General Tukur Gusau stated that,
The DHQ has observed the non-adherence to the ban by some unauthorized individuals despite several warnings on the need to desist from such unlawful acts.
The DHQ, therefore warns those still contravening the ban to stop immediately as the military and Nigeria Police Force have been directed to arrest and prosecute defaulters.
This decision was necessited by the rampant cases of use of military tickers and insignias to evade security checks.
