The Nigeria army has placed Major General Hakeem Otiki under house arrest and close surveillance, Igbere TV has learnt.

Igbere TV reports that Maj. Gen. Otiki is the military officer whose N400 million was reportedly carted away by some escort soldiers, July 11.

Although instructed to load the money into a military jet for transport to Abuja, the soldiers failed to do so but instead shared it among themselves and disappeared.

They reportedly dropped their rifles, uniforms and other accouterments, and mobile phones before vanishing into thin air with the money.

Otiki was the General Officer Commanding (GOC), 8 Division, Sokoto, until his redeployment to the Administrative Staff College of Nigeria, ASCON.

Military sources told Igbere TV that the Maj. Gen. is being held in the Officers Mess until he can be moved to Abuja for questioning over the sources of the N400 million.

It was gathered that men of the Directorate of Military Intelligence (DMI), Special Intelligence Bureau (SIB), and Nigerian Army Corps of Military Police (NACMP), have been arranged for his special interrogation in Abuja.

He is reportedly being guarded by heavily armed soldiers who are carefully screening his visitors.

Esseite:
This insurgency would take the grace of God to end, it is free money to most and the deaths are mere collateral damage.

TRIGITIS:

Despite this, some eternal wailing monkeys have rather digressed and started talking about "how buhari is looting".

If this General is later found guilty and appropriately sanctioned, same monkeys will still be telling us "how buhari is attacking southerners in the army".

Honestly, it seems some creatures have taken blood oath to perpetually remain pains.
