Boko Haram: Brigadier General Ransome-kuti, 29 Others To Face Court Martial by Haykay80(m): 11:37am On May 12, 2015 |
The Nigerian Army has ordered 30 of its top officers to proceed to the Army Headquarters Garrison in Abuja to face a judicial panel reportedly over their conduct and performances in the ongoing war against Boko Haram. According to an internal army memo dated March 11, 2015 the officers are to be court-martialed for various offences. The memo listed 30 senior officers who were instructed to depart their current posting and head for the Army Headquarters garrison for “jurisdiction”. The specific offences for which each of the officers is to be tried was not stated but military insiders say it has to do with their conduct in the fight against the Boko Haram extremist group. Among those listed in the document is Enitan Ransome-Kuti, a Brigadier General and commander of the Multi National Joint Task Force, who has been blamed for the loss of Baga in January. The brigadier general, his chief of staff, Lieutenant Colonel GA Suru and some other senior officers were arrested for failing to repel terrorists attack on the headquarters of the MNJTF. According to the document seen by this newspaper, only one officer – a Lieutenant Colonel CA Ekeator – out of the 31 senior officers was posted from court martial at the AHQ garrison to Armed Forces Command and Staff College, Jaji, where he is Director of Studies. The posting was signed by the releasing officer, Military Secretary, II Abba, a Major General, reports Premium Times. The 30 senior officers include: 1.

Why is Obasanjo's son not among them. He should be tried for desertion. As soon as the coward sighted Boko haram he took to his heels (as onye ofe) and got a bullet in his buttocks. All he knows is to talk from all corners of the mouth like his father. 1 Like |
