You mean a General of the Nigerian Army could simply be abducted and die in the hands of bandits? This is beyond tragic; it is a national disgrace.

If a man trained to command troops, defend the nation, and confront danger can be reduced to such a fate, what hope is left for the ordinary citizen?

This is a grim reminder of the depth of the security crisis confronting our country. No nation should become so helpless that its generals fall prey to criminals on its own soil.

Terrible. Painful. Unacceptable.
