The assassination of this man must not be swept underneath the carpet. A thorough investigation into this murder must be set in motion and the perpetrators of this abominable deed brought to justice. This country is really a crazy location to exist in.

Watch how his village in Mubi will become vulnerable again, now that their guardian Angel has been taken out. Buhari is Fulani herdsmen and Fulani herdsmen is Buhari.

Anyone who thinks this was just an assassination, without orders from the very top of Buharis government is mad.

Alex Badeh, the man who looted the money meant for procurement of weapon to defend this nation.

Alex Badeh, one man who the sum of $1m was recovered from his wardrobe.

Now that he his dead, I can only wish God judge him according to his deeds.

If only SSS can locate and rope you in so you can explain yourself further, that can assist in resetting your brain.

All that is now a history because of bad politics

He was silent now they have silenced him forever.

They refused to do something now something is doing them!

Rest in peace to the deceased!
