Former military President, Ibrahim Babangida on Friday spoke in defence of Muhammadu Buhari, presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC who is accused of having no secondary school certificate; THE NATION reports.

Babangida said, ''The military is one institution that believes in constant learning and training. You receive the initial training from the Staff College. After one year, you go for another round of intensive training that is all encompassing.

''It is one institution that is concerned about knowledge, even in warfare. The military requires you to keep abreast of development in warfare, weaponry and education.

''Perhaps, military is the best institution that is concerned about training and knowledge and about discipline because no officer is considered for promotion without having the prerequisite qualification and must pass the required examinations''.

''The military remains the institution of unity. I will not support the idea of politicising the military. This is nothing but politics. I think those aggrieved should know what to do. Anybody who feels aggrieved should go to court and let the court make a pronouncement that will settle everything'', Babangida said.
