Under apc 3.5 yrs, the killing is much more than pdp 16 yrs. Both hard and soft targets are not spared.

Good, assassinated just like the average common man, when you leave the country in ruin and tatters,either directly or indirectly, then one day the hunter ends up being the hunted,or their families or kids, as for the ordinary man, nothing gain nothing loss,everyday alive in naija is a bonus

They are responsible for all the rot in the society. All the joblessness that is making young minds go into criminal acts. I hope those still living will learn from this. Their looting which denied all these criminals access to education, good job is what is responsible for all these.
Re: Alex Badeh (1957-2018): The Man Who Flew Two Former US Presidents by Isobug: 8:19am On Dec 19, 2018
We all know why they assassinated him.

He's from Adamawa
He worked with previous administration
He has large followers
He was the chief of Air staff
He was the cheif of Defence staff
He knows the security systems of the military
too well more than anybody
He's still sympathetic to his former employers

Use your brains to conclude

Alex Badeh (1957-2018): The Man Who Flew Two Former US Presidents And Received A Recognition From Koffi Anan

Alex Sabundu Badeh, born January 10, 1957, was a retired four star flag officer of the Nigerian Air force who served as the 18th Chief of Air Staff (October 4, 2012 – January 16, 2014).

He was the 15th Chief of Defence Staff of the armed forces of Nigeria (January 16, 2014 to July 13, 2015).

Badeh was born in Vimtim, Mubi Local Government Area of Adamawa State, North East Nigeria into a family of peasant farmers.

He attended Vimtim Primary School, Vimtim and went on to obtain his school certificate from Villanova Secondary School in 1976 before proceeding to the Nigerian Defence Academy

Alex Badeh was admitted into the Nigerian Defence Academy as a member of the 21 Regular Course on 3 January 1977, and was commissioned Pilot Officer on 3 July 1979. He commenced his flying career at the 301 Flying Training School on the Bulldog Primary Trainer aircraft in 1979.

He holds an M.Sc. degree in Strategic Studies from the University of Ibadan.

Air Marshal Badeh was promoted Air Vice Marshal on 3 January 2008.

Badeh was Commander of the Presidential Fleet, during the Olusegun Obasanjo's presidency. The Presidential Fleet Crew flew around the world frequently and by 2002, Badeh logged over 6000 flying hours shuttling VIPs, dignitaries, top government officials and Heads of State.

He was given the green light to fly former United States Presidents Bill Clinton and Jimmy Carter on different occasions after extensive check was done by the United States Secret Service.

Badeh’s professional dexterity on duty earned him commendation and an autographed pen from Koffi Anan and the then UN Secretary after flying him to an official trip.

He has an impressive CV but hat didn't stop him from stealing anything kept in his care.
We, Nigerians need to examine why we feel useless if we don't end up with loads of money especially after public service. Self-introspection is needed to decipher how we became so attached to money and almost not at all to honour.

Even Lugard did not end up with loads of cash and properties after creating Nigeria

sadThis whole Ex General without security backup. wen some big boys like Emoney dey go around with heavy escort . Probably nor wan share his loot wit anybody. It is well
naturally as a retired air Marshall he's entitled to escorts at his beck and call..something is fishy about the deaths of this retired big boys.either there is a systematic cleansing of the closest or some people just balanced a score.

any one accusing late badeh of embezzling arms funds on this thread even before a conviction in a court of law is an IDIOT. he was an accused not a convict. the public can CONVICT Badeh on social media but he remains innocent before the law.. and let me ask WHY lazy Nigerian youths are not forcing Buhari to release the arms probe report this government constituted three years ago... do you know why buhari will never release that report? ask any serving military officer .
