The Defence Headquarters in Abuja has announced the sacking AVM Abdullahi Kure, the commandant of the Armed Forces Command and Staff College (AFCSC) Jaji, Kaduna State and Corps Commander, Major-General Mohammed Isa was also sacked.

Their sack follows last Sunday bombing of the St. Andrews Military Protestant Church at the Army base leading to the death of 15 persons as two car bombs exploded minutes apart during a church service.

The Defence Headquarters spokesperson, Col. Mohammed Yerima said in a statement that Air Vice Marshal EE Osim is to replace Air Vice Marshal Kure as Commandant Armed Forces Command and Staff College (AFCSC) while Maj Gen KC Osuji will act as Corps Commander, Infantry, Jaji.

The statement also stated “An inquiry raised by defense headquarters to unravel the circumstances that led to the bomb explosion which rocked Saint Andrew’s protestant church at the Jaji Military Command in Kaduna state last week. Air Vice Marshall Kure and Major-General Isa will be redeployed by their respective services.”

Maybe he should have resigned before hand, seeing that COAS had already made up his mind to sack him since last week! Nigerians should learn the culture of taking responsibility for their (in)actions.

Wow! Ds is serious,sack 2 senior muslim northern officers and replace them wt senior christian southern officers aftermath of church bombing. That's screaming!

Looks like some guys hv been indicted for being religiously involved in administration priorities, otherwise I can't think of any other thing d DHQ action could suggest.

u r d one dt needs to grow up my dunce friend. I see issues logically and not a bigot. u need to show me if my observation is not tied with the original story before u giv in to another fit of rush of word to the head. are u blind? cant u see the obvious dt the two indited and sacked officers r muslim northerners and their immediate replacements r christian southerners? while it might be purely a happenstance, but in polarized Nigeria of today, it seems pregnant with meanings. Until one know d extent of their indictment, one can only stick wt d apparent picture and i owe u no apology for seeing it d way it is. if u still think i am wrong then present a counter logic, otherwise shut up and learn.

A sack is easy landing , they should be court marshaled, jailed and dishonorably discharged.

religion is your opium

A step in the right direction. Every attempt should be made to get to the root of the issue.

Pity that we have been blinded by ethnic and religious sentiments. When someone is sacked, the next in the line of command takes over.

Trying to play the ethnic/religious on this issue is wht is making the situation hard to solve.

NIgerian MIlitia men are all business men.

They know nothing about security

A million sack can never bring any competent man incharge.

Because it was found based on lies and self centered government.

Businessmen
They know
Competent
Am sure your reasoning is comparable to your use of English Language.
Start now to learn so you can oneday replace someone and be competent.

Those interested in the religion, region and ethnicity of the replaced and the replacement are only moving backward. Be a positive thinker at all times. Your state of mind affects your state of health.
