Brigadier General Enitan Ransome-Kuti, the son of the late human rights activist, Beko Ransome Kuti, has been sentenced to six months in prison for offenses committed during the war against Boko Haram.



He will be dismissed from the Army if the sentence pronounced on him by a military court in Abuja on Thursday is confirmed by the Nigerian Army.

Brigadier General Kuti has been at the center of controversy relating to his conduct as an officer. He was accused of failing to perform his military duties during the fight against Boko Haram which may have resulted in the militants’ capture of Baga, the center of a multinational force.

Included in the charges against him is that Brigadier General Kuti failed to account for the weapons and ammunitions under his supervision, rendering the army useless in the fight against Boko Haram.

The officer denied all the charges. During a long trial, his lawyer, Femi Falana, presented evidence to the court that the Nigerian army had simply failed to provide necessary equipment for the Brigadier General to perform his lawful duties.

Falana also presented several statements from officers and soldiers who repeatedly stated that the army was ill-equipped to fight Boko Haram, an assertion that was later affirmed by a former Chief of Defence Staff, Alex Badeh, shortly after he was fired from that position earlier this year.

If He was actually guilty as charged then he should face the music squarely.

If he is truly not guilty of the charges against him, l pray he be vindicated.

APC, Always looking for who to blame..

Because he is not a Fulani abi, what about all those Fulani indicated by the past govt? They have been set free by their master.

What is wrong with these my western brothers and cowardice, if it's to frustrate the Eze ndi Igbo now,you would see them at the fore fronts.
Hate has never helped any one, liberate yourselves from hatered and you will progress.

Many like him have been restored / installed back to their ranks by PMB just because they are fulani men. The selection blame game is too tribal ,u clueless ITK.

lot of them not only yoruba, I know about an Ibo major who was to be transfered to Borno recently but he use an uncle of mine who is a senior at abuja to work his posting down to abuja. Who wan die bro This is not about tribe, NA should free kuti abeg. Useless Buran-tashi

*just incase*

Because he is Beko's son,I would reserve my comment just for the high regards I have for his father and the entire Kuti dynasty.

The Brigadier General should be pardon, we understand the wicked and malicious script written during Jonathan's era, we also understand the instructions given to those fighting the internal war, saboteurs and sabotage was the order of the day as evidence in recent time according to the 'snake man' burantai.


We can also blame Jonathan for Buratai the snake man cum press-up master's comment below.
