That's just because he didn't have enough time to loot.

This is how they sang bubu praise in his short tenure in 84, .now he has stayed long, how far?

Murtala is a God sent you humanity

This can’t be said if a supervisory councilor of a ward

The same equivalent of the 7000 to recent day

That enemies of Nigeria killed this man goes to show the depths they'd go to to maintain their benefiting and how much more we must fight to change the status quo so the benefits and opportunities are everyone's.

Your father will always be remembered

Not everyone is a thief

Ask your daddy how he faired at place of work during his reign or if he’s still working how is fairing

Please don’t allow Yahoo! Yahoo! Or corrupt politicians corrupt your reasoning of patience and hardwork if you have one though

Guess you can't tell by their fruits so you'd rather make up your own reality.

So, all that time going through the ranks of the Nigeria Army was not enough to amass more than ₦7000?

This one Na old news now.. Almost 2 months now

How much was General Murtala's salary when he was killed please, anyone?

You sounded a little intelligent, I don't even apologise.

Hmmm

7000 naira in 1975 is like 1million in todays economy

#7, 000 at that time is not a small money.

Enough of those sympathy talk

at that time school fee was 5 Naira so 7k is equivalent to modem day 7 million don't be deceived
