Prof needs to attend a time management class again. How would you leave your home later than when it would take you to drive to your destination? I had an employee fired for poor time management. Poor calculation of distance to your destination and knowing when to leave your Point A if you intend to get to Point B at a given time...

Absolute rubbish!

What has time got to do with the incident? It's his prerogative to leave when he chooses, it doesn't undermine the act of our soldiers. It's understandable that they are escorting sensitive materials, but where in the civilized world have you seen military escorting sensitive materials publicly? undecided

These guys have done well in the war against BH, they are winning the war but like I said this morning, our military need restructuring...

Why did the driver overtake a convoy of military vehicles in a north eastern village if not that he's asking to get shot at?
Thanks for brushing off emotions. I'm aghast at the number of sentimental comments littering this thread in defense of a daft move by a driver who should be cooling off in a rehab right now. This is how ambush is done. A convoy, not a single military vehicle. That driver is mentally poor. Prof should be grateful that he left the scene with his life. The military all over the world must be shown some regard.

The man no get sense at all. They did that in self defense. That move is a reckless one. The soldier may think he is a suicide bomber that wants to attack them.

You are thinking professionally.

well,in Nigeria everybody likes to claim right.when force is used to correct them,they blame the Government, president or system.
Why will a Prof. who ought to be very knowledgeable try to overtake a military convoy conveying sensitive equipment at this time.
The soldiers did the right thing to the best of their knowledge. They thought it could be suicide bombers or an attack on them.
Because he is a professor doesn't make him immune to suspicion.
we should leave sentiments apart,if you where a soldier risking your life for your country,and u find yourself in such a situation,what will you do?
Note-They didn't assault him,they only immobilized his vehicle.
Some people here are just funny. How do they think suicide bombers operate? The soldiers were very professional to have only immobilised his vehicle.

Kudos to the NA!

Thanks my Brother, so many Nigerians claim to be educated but their reasoning is so pathetic. They always look for someone or something to blame for their misfortune,due to their stupidity.

I've Patiently Trailed A Military Convoy In Calabar For Over An Hour. There's Nothing New. I'm Sure The Prof In Question Was Only Stretching His Luck Which Could Have Cost His Head. Don't Dare Overtake Military Convoys In Nigeria, You'd Be A Suspect And Would Be Treated As Such. P.L.E.A.S.E

Prof Ango Abdullahi Shot In Bauchi

Vanguard gathered that the former Vice Chancellor of Ahmadu Bello University (ABU), Zaria, attacked his car as soldiers shot at the car as his driver overtook a military convoy.


Did the Prof Ango attack his own car? Was before, or the soldiers shot at it? Or was it during the incident? If so, is that not foolhardy?

Why would they attack him? Is it that no one has the right to overtake a military convoy? Why wouldn't they stop him to know why he had to overtake them? I am waiting to read the press release of the Nigerian Army on this.

As usual, they would come out with denial. Our soldiers lack discipline.

Once it is called Highway, there is no speed limit attached to it (except on papers especially in Nigeria). In an ideal situation you have right to overtake any car on highway but if you do such in a place like North East at the current situation I think you are inviting trouble. Well let's wait for the NA statement.
Yet there's no reason but military recklessness.

This is an act of pure professional arrogance. What makes the soldiers think that their mission was more important than the mission of the professor?
If their mission was that sensitive, they should have moved at the dead of the night to avoid obstructing other road users. What if he was a professor of medicine rushing to the theater to save a life. These arrogant fools should be called to order.

1.who was more arrogant,the Prof or the soldiers.The prof was arrogant cuz he thought "since I'm a Prof,I can overtake and nothing will happen to me".
2. YES THEIR MISSION IS MORE SENSITIVE AND IMPORTANT THAN THAT OF THE FOOLISH PROF BECAUSE IT INVOLVES LIVES DIRECTLY AND NATIONAL SECURITY.
3. Moving at night with such equipments only make them more vulnerable to attacks,
SOLDIERS ARE HUMANS,THEY HAVE FLESH AND BLOOD LIKE YOU.THEY HAVE FAMILIES, THEY FEAR DEATH ALSO BUT ARE COURAGEOUS ENOUGH NOT TO HIDE BEHIND THEIR KEYBOARDS AND TYPE RUBBISH IN TRYING TO SOUND SMART AND JUSTIFY STUPIDITY.

I think your comment is second to the worst i have read on this post. I don't type much, but try what the prof. did and see whether you will be alive to narrate your story.

To those of you trying to justify prof's action, please sell your pride and buy common sense.

Prof Ango Abdullahi Shot In Bauchi

Vanguard gathered that the former Vice Chancellor of Ahmadu Bello University (ABU), Zaria, attacked his car as soldiers shot at the car as his driver overtook a military convoy.

Narrating what happened to newsmen in Bauchi yesterday, Professor Abdullahi said he was on his way for an official assignment at Bauchi State University, Gadau, where he is the chairman of the university’s governing council.

“It was in the morning as I was travelling in my official car with my driver. I was going to Gadau for a meeting. We had just passed the Awala Hotel roundabout when I saw a military convoy moving very slowly.

“I was trying to catch up for the meeting, so my driver overtook the military convoy. The next thing I knew they opened fire at us, with bullets were sprayed on the car.

“The bullets damaged the engine of the car, damaged the car that we had to park by the road side. The soldiers came out and were shouting angrily at us.

“They were demanding to know why we wanted to overtake them, asking if we didn’t know that the soldiers were exporting sensitive materials,” he said.

According to him, “they just left us there and continued their movement. I have never seen such a reckless act.

“I called the Commissioner for Higher Education and told him. The Commissioner for Higher Education called the security agencies chiefs to inform them of what happened.
