their failure to perform military duties , by absconding from the convoy of the deceased former CDS, while it came under attack

I wish Alex Badeh was alive to face his crimes and spend the rest of his life in jail. The man handed over Mubi his home town to Boko haram just like that!

Those who killed Badeh are d same people sentencing These criminals to jail

Audio jailing

I knew there was more to the killing of Alex Badeh.

Ok

500gb External hard drive filled with cartoon, series, action movies etc is available if you are in Port Harcourt.

The charges tells the story of why Nigeria is in a mess.
Majority of those in public service are not there for service or passion, they are there for hustle - selfish aggrandizement which is why they will loot, collect bribes to do their jobs, abscond and add zero value in public interest.
And this cuts across from politicians to lecturers, uniformed men down to cleaners at LGAs

It is well!

What's tha business?

Who killed Badeh?

So the case was active since, waiting for the sentence of the actual killers.

its foolhardy to make anyone believe som ragtag criminals will jst go ad ambush a 3star general jst like dt

those who killed badeh will never have peace in this life ad the hearfter

I love this PMB administration.

GEJ was a coward

The court is implying that this is a planned work indirectly.
