Nigeria’s Defence Headquarters has refuted a digitally fabricated video circulating online. The video, created using artificial intelligence, falsely depicts Chief of Defence Staff, General Olufemi Oluyede, endorsing a particular political side. Military officials confirmed the video is entirely fabricated and aims to mislead the public. The DHQ strongly condemned the use of AI to spread disinformation and undermine trust in the armed forces. This incident highlights growing concerns about the potential for AI-generated content to be used for malicious purposes. Authorities are investigating the source of the video and will take appropriate action against those responsible for creating and distributing it. The military emphasized its commitment to remaining neutral in political matters.
