Babangida's co traveller. I feel nothing for him.

But sorry for his family's loss. Na so Dele Giwa die, na so Vatsa die, Na so people die everyday due to the corruption of these band of Looters. Bad Education, bad roads, bad healthcare service, terrible economic, bad politics, corrupt and unprofessional military, bad police service, Brain drain to foreign lands. Poor national reputation. Vain pursuit of power at all cost.

Death is a leveler, it forces all of us to become equal at the end. The death of a National leader is a good opportunity to examine their legacy. I'm not happy about his legacy and that of his brothers.

I feel for the family though.

May he find his afterlife experience as interesting as he made Nigeria.
Re: Augustus Aikhomu Is Dead by redsun(m): 8:16pm On Aug 17, 2011
He legacy is the same as that of his cohorts such as ibb,obj,danjuma,useni,yaradua,david mark and co-looting. May their descendants pay for their atrocities if they happen to escape it because of wuruwuru ridden and by death.
Re: Augustus Aikhomu Is Dead by HighChief4(m): 8:18pm On Aug 17, 2011
Death is inevitable, but these looters will never learn a thing or two from it. Even the ones that are not sure of being alive till the next 5yrs are still looting seriously. Good he is dead, less problem to the country
Re: Augustus Aikhomu Is Dead by VoodooDoll(m): 8:28pm On Aug 17, 2011
Well, he will have to answer to the Good Lord for his acts while on earth.

This dead man and his band of disgusting thieves have raped over 150m people.

Reactions trail Aikkomu’s death
on AUGUST 17, 2011 · in NEWS
   
By Simon Ebegbulem

Reactions have continued to trail the death of former Chief of General Staff and military Vice-President Augustus Aikhomu, who died Wednesday, in Lagos.

Chief John Oyegun,  first executive Governor of Edo State,

“We have had more than our fair share of deaths in our state, we lost Enahoro, then the governor’s wife and now we are talking of a prominent Nigerian in Aikhomu. It is really tragic, very difficult to believe, I know he was ill but I never knew it will lead to death, it is quite painful.

My heartfelt sympathy to his family, his wife and  children. He contributed to the development of the nation both as a military man and a politician. He is one of the elder statesmen of both the state and the entire country. I don’t know what is happening to our medical facilities in this country.

Senator Rowland Stephen Owie, former Chief Whip of the senate

“It’s a disaster. He was a great Nigerian. Very very detribalized Nigerian. He is a man that says the truth always. He was my national leader in ANPP. His death is devastating to all of us. I spoke to him a week and half ago and he was sounding very healthy. We give God the glory. Its symbolic that he died on the birthday of Ibrahim Babangida his boss. May his gentle soul rest in peace.

Chief Tom Ikimi

He was my best friend. I spoke to him last week in London; I told him I was coming to London to visit him. His death is a monumental loss to our country and the state in particular. He is a very dependable and reliable person. His contributions to the development and stability of our country cannot be quantified. He made significant contributions to the end of the civil war. He was the commander of the Nigerian flag ship NNS Nigeria. He was an unblemished naval officer. I won’t be able to say much now be later because I am bereaved.

Chief Dan Orbih, Edo state PDP Chairman

A great Nigerian. A man of peace, leader, diplomat and a statesman. May his Gentle Soul rest in peace.

Gen. Charles Airhiavbere
It is a sad day for the military and Nigerians in general. I cannot tell you how shocked I am. It is a sad news for all of us. An intelligent man, politician and a man of truth. Those of us in the military know his worth. So his demise is a big blow to the Nigerian Armed forces and Edo people in particular. May his Gentle soul rest in perfect peace. Amen

Rest in Peace!
Re: Augustus Aikhomu Is Dead by redsun(m): 8:41pm On Aug 17, 2011
What is going on with the bankole looting saga? Soon nigerians will forget he is a thief and vote him in as the president in the near future. Meanwhile EFCC is busy worrying about tithe,a small proportion of the loot while the main issues are being swept under the carpet
