Report: Corruption In Military Responsible For Faltering B’haram War by Omooba77: 6:09pm On Dec 30, 2018

Massive corruption among top military chiefs appointed by President Muhammadu Buhari is the reason Nigeria is losing the war against Boko Haram, the Defense and Foreign Affairs has revealed in its Special Analysis released on December 28.

The Defense and Foreign Affairs reports are published by the International Strategic Studies Association (ISSA) based in the United States of America. ISSA is a Washington-based non-governmental organisation with a worldwide membership of professionals involved in national and international security and strategic policy.

The association, in 1998, took over publication of the Defense and Foreign Affairs publishing and information group, which began in 1972, providing strategic information and analysis to governments worldwide. It also incorporates the Global Information System (GIS), an encrypted on-line intelligence service for governments.

President of ISSA, Gregory Copley, told THISDAY yesterday night that their analyses were not released to the public but to governments the organisation had affiliation with. Investigation shows that not less than 160 countries have some form of affiliation to the organisation’s reports.

Asked specifically if the organisation had any affiliation with Nigeria, Coley, replied, “All I can say is that our report go to all countries we have some form of affiliation with. I will not comment on specific cases.”



“The commission, investigating defense procurement from 2007 onwards, made significant strides which were initially accepted by the Buhari government, until the scope of the inquiry went beyond the period relating to the former government of Pres. Goodluck Jonathan, and began to show corruption patterns extending into officers still serving under President Buhari.”

The report stated that the death of a former Chief of Air Staff, Air Chief Marshal (rtd.) Alex Sabundu Badeh (who became Chief of Defence Staff), and that of a former Chief of Administration of the Nigerian Army, Major General Idris Alkali, on September 3, 2018 were not a mere coincidence .

It said, “Given the upsurge in momentum by ‘the highest levels of government’ to stop the findings becoming public from the corruption commission on defense procurement, it is plausible that the attribution of a criminal ‘kidnapping-attempt-gone-wrong’ against the Air Chief Marshal was a convenient excuse to ensure that the victim — Badeh — could not divulge in court the pattern and details of corruption which has grown even more rampant in the current generation of defense leadership.

“On September 3, 2018, the retired Chief of Administration of the Nigerian Army, Maj.-Gen. Idris Alkali, was also killed, ostensibly by a gang of youthful protestors who set up a roadblock near Jos, the capital of Plateau State. His body was discovered on October 31, 2018. And his death was blamed on ‘an irate mob’, who were protesting in the Du-ra-Du community against the September 2, 2018, killing of 11 members of their own community.”

The report further stated, “No significant economic or political progress can be achieved in Nigeria until the issue of the Boko Haram insurgency is resolved. Other insurgencies are also expected to emerge, or re-emerge, particularly in the Niger Delta. And while other pending internal security issues are important, it is on the BH issue that the prestige, credibility, and reliability of Nigeria is assessed by the international community. Thus, all questions of the viability of Nigeria as a candidate for inward foreign direct investment (FDI) and international cooperation are dependent on a resolution of the BH issues.

“Domestically, resolution of the BH issue is a pre-requisite to enabling issues of intra-Nigerian regional equity imbalances to be addressed. Moreover, the credibility of the Federal Government as an arbiter of justice is assessed by the domestic electorate and the world community.”

However, the Nigerian Armed Forces have consistently denied any allegation of corruption against the leadership. They have also stated and demonstrated the fact that they are capable of not only stopping the insurgents but rooting them out of the country.

Two days ago, army spokesman, Brig. General Sani Kukasheka Usman, said the nation’s military repelled an attack by the insurgents in Baga, Boro State. According to him, the insurgents on Wednesday, December 26 attacked the 7 Brigade of the Multinational Joint Task Force (MNJTF), based in Baga, Borno State, about 7pm.

A statement issued by Usman read, “The troops along with their Nigerian Navy counterparts put up a very determined fight to repel the attack throughout the night, while Sector 3 Operation LAFIYA DOLE sent in reinforcement who are in hot pursuit of the terrorists.

“Similarly, a Search and Rescue team has been constituted.

“The Nigerian Air Force component has also been mobilised and are engaging the fleeing terrorists. Unfortunately, a naval personnel was killed in action. So far, no further details of casualties yet as efforts are ongoing to clear the terrorists hiding in Baga and environs.”

Very pathetic! Military personnel are dying like goats; lots of cover up. You get to know about death of relatives in military when messages for burial ceremony are sent.

I can understand why the govt is seriously trying to cover it up. My grouse is with the media houses. What happened to the investigative journalism Channels TV once practiced? That piece they did on the Police College at Ikeja during GEJ's regime is still fresh in my memory. Why were those who were so loud then suddenly quiet?

The period where the present min. of interior held sway right? Do you still wonder why they refused going beyond that time?

Another who bought properties in Dubai with his supposed savings bah?

Of course, many Nigerians are aware that Badeh's assassination was political.

This is the most corrupt government that ever ruled us.All these revelations are no surprise to discerning observers of this government.Right from Buhari to his military chiefs and other appointees,all are a bunch of lying,fraudulent,parochial,nepotic bunch.
If Nigerians regain their commonsenses and vote out this government,the kind of revelations about the fraudulent deeds carried out by the government would make corpses turn in their graves.

How can he fight for a people that are ruled by a man so incompetent,aged,nepotic,overseeing suffering and bloodshed round the country,and yet he still has people rooting for a second term for him!
He divinely helped us get rid of Abacha,when some i diots were adopting him up and down.During Buhari's first stint as military HOS,he also helped get him out,within just 18months when He saw the danger his continued rule would portend.
This is a man that executed some people for cocaine trafficking,not murder o,despite the fact that they even committed the offence before the enactment of the capital punishment for drug trafficking!So they were basically executed retroactively!!
Since some people are hellbent on destroying what remains of Nigeria,if Buhari is returned,as they so wish,its up to the general populace to take the gauntlet and vote him out or suffer the dire consequences.God cannot be coming to our rescue everytime because he didn't give us commonsense for nothing.
