BBC: Nigerian troops have been banned from uploading videos or photos of their operations.
The move comes after video footage emerged last year of soldiers involved in the fight against militant Islamist group Boko Haram complaining about a lack of food and other supplies.
In a speech delivered to soldiers in northern Kaduna state on behalf of army chief Tukur Buratai, Mag-Gen Adeniyi Oyebade said:
“Specifically, I want to warn you on the use of social media. While you are on operation, you may want to take photo shot of some good moment but you should be very careful while doing that. Avoid any picture or video that has to do with your colleague or operation.”
